So this is a "card form" of a paper wallet, right? Or am I missing something?

But it also works as a regular Bitcoin wallet would? As in, you can store as little or as much funds on it as you like?

It signs transactions, verifies block difficulty and everything so its definitely a lot more advanced and powerful than a paper wallet.
The way it works is comparable to other light clients such as Electrum.

And yes you can store as little or as much as you like. I would recommend something like 2 months expenditures or less to be on the safe side.
Use an offline generated encrypted paper wallet for the big savings.

Its meant to be used to pay groceries and other everyday stuff in a very easy manor.

(Probably still alot better security than many people have on their thousands of dollars worth of bitcoins)

Hmm.. It would be nice if you are able to giveaway a few for other to try. Maybe a contest or such? Rafflecopter might be a good choice if you want to make a contest while promoting it on social network. This can increase your wallet awareness and reputation - if you keep your promise.

Sounds cool. I'll look into it. Since my solution is highly price competitive such things are not a problem.

Ahh. I like developer who is positive toward all comments. If you did open a contest or giveaway, please do inform me via PM. I will definitely join if I allowed.

Good job mate , however can we see more pictures ? or it's looks like that on the physical card too ? I personally don't like the design that much , it could be better but dosen't matter it's a hardware wallet all it counts is the security i think .
you may want to ask LiteCoinGuy to add your wallet to his thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/overview-bitcoin-hardware-wallets-secure-your-coins-899253

Thank you. Yes I will ask him.

The physical card uses that graphic for the front and its white on the back, I'll upload some real images and a demo video soon.

Security is as good as possible with a smartcard - better than most thought possible - but this card was made for normal people spending Bitcoin every day using PIN codes so if you're looking for a bunker for your coins an encrypted paper wallet or one of the other hardware wallets would be better.

Nice, what would be the time frame for international shipping to south America or Central America ?, I'll give it a shot if i don't have to wait more then 20 days to receive one.

I use normal letters so maybe ~10 days.

If it disappears on the way I will try to find a local dealer in that region and send more reliable packages to him that he can distribute.
I'm trying that for Thailand at the moment.

I'm still experimenting
