I recently received my OPENDIME hardware "bearer bond" wallets. These are a limited version of a hardware wallet. That thread is here:

I briefly review my experience on Page 3, there are reviews and instructions (and discussion) there at the thread as well as their website.

The OPENDIME is a very simple & cheap way to hold some BTC in relative safety. But, it requires, as far as I can tell anyway, another wallet that must have the ability to import the Keys.
blockchain.info's wallets do, it took me some time, but I figured out how to do that (import the Keys from my OPENDIME so I could get my funds out, I was experimenting to see if I could do that).
My questions are:
-- Other than blockchain.info's, are there other online wallets that can import Public and Private Keys?
What
-- I was NOT able to find those functions on my Trezor nor Ledger Nano. Do either or both have a way to import the Keys?
Many thanks!

There are several bitcoin wallet apps that allow you to import private keys, i.e. Electrum, Mycelium etc..
IMHO a hardware wallet like trezor is for creating your private keys in a safe way without a computer and protecting them against theft, so it would not make sense to import an external private key into such device because it's unknown if the key is already compromised.
What do you mean exactly, by "importing private keys"?
