rootdude at GetHashing is having a problem with his KeepKey:

If you are thinking about investing in a KeepKey - hold off. I plugged mine in the morning to review the overnight mining returns and left the device connected to my computer. Thirteen hours later, I returned to find the screen dark. No problem, right? Unplug it and replug it? Nope. When I picked up the device to unplug it, it was hot to the touch. I unplugged it and re-plugged it. No display. The chrome wallet flashed my balance for a moment or two (the keys are likely intact, I suspect) - but then it flashed the 'No Device Connected' message. I let the device cool down to room temps before trying again - same thing, no dice. Different computer with a fresh install of the wallet and proxy? Same thing. I've opened a ticket, and DM'd the owner/developer and am waiting for a response. Googling the problem yields nothing (the device is brand new and somewhat expensive so I'm sure there aren't that many in the wild).

Here's a fun one:

What, you haven't heard of the BitLox? Well that's because we like to keep things secret until the last minute 

It's got a metal case, BLE, USB, 2" e-paper display, integrated input pad and a lot more.

More videos on the way...

In case you are interested in getting one pre-launch, check out my post in services:

If you get one make sure to post how well it works with your model phone. I could make it work with my Nexus but I had to work at it.

I was quite interested in Unplugged until I realised my phone doesn't have NFC capabilities.
However my ledger nano works perfectly fine.

Ledger Blue Developer Edition



The Ledger Blue is a personal lightweight mobile device architectured around a ST31 secure element, featuring a touch screen and USB/NFC/BLE connectivity. This is a developer edition available in PRE ORDER with a delivery scheduled in late January 2016.

Main features
- ST31 Secure Element, STM32 MCU
- 320x480 touch screen
- BLE 4.1, NFC, USB 2.0 FS
- 500mA lithium ion rechargeable battery
- developer friendly: low level API (for embedded apps) and high level API (for client apps)

Main native apps:
- HD hardware wallet (BIP39, BIP32, BIP44), compatible with the Ledger Wallet Chrome app and upcoming Ledger Wallet Android & iOS app
- FIDO authentication (Hardware 2FA for Google, Github, Dropbox...)
- PGP tools

Example of apps to develop:
- Slack channel encryption (through the Chrome app)
- Keybase integration for in-device secure signature & encryption
- Trading & Financial orders second factor confirmations
- Blockchain apps (validation & confirmation of digital assets transactions)
- Passwords vault "master password" integration
- ...

Links
- Ledger Blue page on ledgerwallet.com
- Github repository (empty for now)
- Ledger Blue brochure, PDF format
- Video of Mycelium integration demonstration

The Ledger Blue Developer Edition is an early access unit which will be shipped late January 2016. It is intended for developers and enthousiasts only: the device will require numerous firmware updates and won't be delivered with an "out of box" onboarding. The casing will be most probably 3D printed and will therefore not match the quality and design of the definitive version.

We have already produced a dozen beta units and the hardware is fully validated. The production of the developer units is scheduled to be ready in January, and everything will be shipped from our factory in France where the Blue is assembled. We target a production release Q2 2016.

The price of the Developer Edition is 179 EUR (+ VAT if you are in Europe).

To pre-order a Ledger Blue Developer Edition (shipping late January 2016), please follow this link, add the Blue to the cart and checkout

Our team is available to answer all your questions here.

Mine works great with my Nexus 6.

Anyone has some reference where to find info, how to use Electrum with LEDGER WALLET NANO ?
What ever i try - all fails
There is some topic on reddit, abt HW.1 use, but all links there are dead. Not much use of it.

I had issues using my HW.1 with Electrum until the latest version of Electrum (2.5.4) came out. Now my Ledger works perfectly with my HW.1. What OS are you using? I'm using Windows 7 but also maintain a wallet on a virtual Ubuntu box. What are the specifics of the problem?

I use WIN 10 64 bit. Electrum 2.5.2   
Maybe I should try 2.5.4 , even not much different from 2.5.2

[globe-biz]

This might help you, I am trying to setup a Trezor with Electrum but I can not get it to work. But what I have learned is you need to install Electrum fesh and select the option to setup a harware wallet. Electrum 2.5.4 only gives an option to setup a ledger wallet so this is what you need to install Electrum with the harware wallet  option then select ledger wallet, it is the only option. It is suprising how they do not have support for Trezor because Trezor does have much more of the market share.

[BitcoinNewsMagazine]

Electrum 2.5.4 works fine with Trezor. You have to initialize your Trezor using myTrezor.com first. After that if you want to use Electrum download 2.5.4 portable and save it in a folder on your desktop. I like the portable version for privacy because it does not write to %AppData%.

Connect your Trezor by USB then navigate to the folder you saved Electrum in and click on the application. Then choose create a new wallet and hardware wallet then click next. You will be give the option of Ledger, KeepKey or Trezor. Choose Trezor and click next and you should be good to go. Any hidden wallets you set up at myTrezor.com will also show in Electrum. I think people are trying to recreate wallets rather than creating new ones.
