Celebrate the Day of Bitcoin with TREZOR and get 2 for 1
http://www.bitcointrezor.com/news/celebrate-day-of-bitcoin-trezor

Can't help but to feel a bit punished for ordering early.

Same here... As I preordered a Steal Case for 3BTC .. a second one would be very nice ...

any chance to get a free plastic one as I pre-ordered (and paid) the steal one?!?

Same here, I pre-ordered to show some support, but I feel a bit pissed now.

I'm also inclined to ask for a free plastic one as well.

just relax everyone. they have a nice product. in order to make it safer, they need more time. on top of it, they need to sell. they come up with this nice little idea to push sales. instead of comparing them to bfl just be happy and order tomorrow, you end up with 3 trezors, two for you and one for... grandma ! Grin

edit: the way i wrote it it may sound sarcastic. it´s not meant that way. why only own one ? ~~tomorrow~~ today is a good opportunity to get them cheap.

I think so too, although the comparison to BFL is a little harsh.

Even though I want to support the bitcoin community .. i dont think its a good idea to harm supporters .. and that is what they are doing by giving newcomers a better price (effectively half the price)!

What I'm referring to is specifically the inability to get a product out on time, and then still pushing hard for more preorders. BFL did this with their ASIC announcement, their bare chip program, their Monarch program... It's sort of like how I'm now seeing TV advertisements for Healthcare.gov even though it is completely and hilariously non-functional.

If you're pricing in dollars, which they are not. I paid 1 bitcoin for a Trezor, when if I had ordered today, I could have paid 1 bitcoin for 2 Trezors. I assumed being an early supporter would offer greater benefit than being a late supporter. I was wrong. I thought Stick and Slush would be different than BFL. I was wrong. I'm done pre-ordering anything related to bitcoin.

Actually, compared to having bought your first on Jun 16th like me (when Bitcoin was around $110) it's not a better deal.

Well if you and these other complainers aren't interested in supporting new tech like this and helping it get off the ground and helping the whole Bitcoin economy and community then you shouldn't be pre-ordering. It is ridiculous to see comparisons to BFL!

Stick and Slush, why did you take a page from the BFL playbook?

At the very last minute, with no warning, you say there will be a three month delay. Then, you offer new customers a better deal than you're original supporters?

I guess our community needs a PR agency that accepts bitcoin, so you can be told "No, don't do that! It's stupid and you'll alienate your customers."

Yeah. I ordered early to show support... but now I just feel like I'm missing out.

Appears to be the metal version. Is that the only one in the 2 for 1 (3 BTC for 2), or is the plastic 2 for 1 BTC too?

It's both plastic and metallic version.

I don't know how the exchange rate was when you ordered, but bitcoin is worth more about twice as many dollars now compared to when I ordered. If the price was set in USD, this price would be standard - not just a special offer.

TREZOR is payment protocol ready (BIP70) which adresses exactly this issue.

I understand that, and that is fine as long as the user expects the merchant to use the protocol. As far as I understand, the Payment Protocol starts by having a Pay Now button/link with the URL bitcoin:merchantaddress?request=url_of_request . The wallet opens that, sees the "request" parameter and goes there to fetch the payment request.

Malware running on the computer could simply rewrite all bitcoin:merchantaddress?request=url_of_request URLs to bitcoin:hackeraddress in the browser (that is rewrite the destination and disable the Payment Request protocol). The user will then pay the attacker instead of the merchant.

Of course, when everyone starts using the protocol, the user will be wary of sites that do not implement it (just like a shop that doesn't use HTTPS nowadays will not get much business).

If the 2 for 1 applies to the plastic version, does anyone fancy going halves with me? Preferably someone in the UK, incase we cant split the order for shipping.

I'm wondering..

Does Trezor provides also protection from malicious client code (modified source code of electrum or any other bitcoin client)? So, technically, as I see it, there is no way for someone to hack into github and modify electrum source code and steal someone's bitcoins as long as you have 'watching-only' wallet and you have to sign every transaction with Trezor (and be able to check a destination address on the screen of the device). Is that correct?

This would add a whole new level of security as you don't even have to trust source code of a client.

But I'm actually thinking about ordering two more devices, so if this applies to plastic versions, I will probably live with that
