I think the problem with a device like this is that the kind of person who would be interested to use this just may be precisely the kind of person that the NSA would like to keep tabs on, just in case. Enough so, that an NSA worried about the Snowden leaks could theoretically come up with this idea as a way to corral folks trying to escape the "conventional" channels. Particularly with an ex-Navy Seal as CEO (no longer trusts the US government?), what's to say that there isn't some other vulnerability built into the core of this device. “Just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they aren't after you”. ― Joseph Heller

I would like to think that the business folks that purchased Blackberry devices for the security mechanisms would be interested in a device like this now that it's been made clear that Blackberry was compromised. Of course if someone really wants you, they're going to get your data. But a device like this might be (imho) a good solution for most business level data protection of the sort people thought they would be getting from Blackberry.
