 You can run your own blind oracle on a umbrel server.

 Here is a link for running your blind oracle on Umbrel. It's early days but it's really cool.

You can also run Green to connect with your own node and verify your own transactions very easily.

 You can also run it purely as a stateless signing device. 

You can dislike it but it's not a bad device.

IMHO it's not worth the money & id rather have a Trezor.

This is after some thorough testing of normal & outlier scenarios (170+ inputs for ex).

 I also have every single HWW I except for the Trezor T. 

So my opinion is a comparative one.

 If I'm already forced to plug the device in or connect it with Bluetooth for a firmware update...id rather just use something that is USB based - works better and doesn't have issues with large inputs.

 Statelessness was a good added feature & I appreciate them adding SeedQR support but then again those are their two best features and they took em from SeedSigner.
