They were exactly like BFL in so much as after missing their published delivery date they refused to give refunds.  They claimed in emails that we invested in them not purchased so they didn't have to abide by US law for US customers.  Yet the process of ordering was clear it was an order, the emails sent confirming stated order and before they took down the order site my order was listed as an order.

I recieved no dividends, I could not sell my investment.  Basically in their eyes I just gave them money to allow them to work.  I'm not sure they would do the same for the rest of us.

I just purchased one a few days back, so I obviously don't have it yet.   I will report back on what I think about it.   I definitely think there will be a lot of competitors for these coming out in the future...

I look forward to your review.  I have not opened mine yet.  Still trying to determine if I want to.  I may just leave in box, if Trezor proves to be a valuable and trusted piece of Bitcoin then maybe holding a First Edition new in box will be valuable.  The fact that I paid for it a year an half a go, and was berated by the staff for daring to ask for a refund after they were 6 months late and could provide no real date for delivery, I simply do not want to partake, nor do I trust them.  Call it a gut feeling based on the context of my interaction with them.

I hear ya on that for sure.   It is super frustrating when you order something that you are looking forward to, and then it gets super delayed.   Believe it or not, I ordered custom knives for my partner at my company (for Xmas last year), and the damn thing has yet to arrive.   I keep getting the run-around from the company about production delays, etc.   It's almost a joke at this point because it could be used for an Xmas present the following year.

I will let you know what I think after I receive it.   If I were you, if you want to use one...maybe just purchase another, and keep the first edition in the box (unopened).

Good point.   I may have to wait and see.   

The way this was run (specifically the attitude of the team towards its customer [excuse me the investor] base) I don't have much faith.  My gut tells me in a year there will be no place to use the Trezor, or the adoption will be dead to some other device.  I hope I'm wrong, we need something.


Are you going to the party?  They are throwing a part, but it's in Prague.  It's a customer appreciation party.  Seems more like a Trezor team party, come celebrate [the Trezor team] greatness.  If it was a customer party maybe they'd consider something that customers could actually participate in.
