Ironically, for mobile-friendly crypto like Aeon, there is no reliable Windows or iOS wallet as of now, but I am very sure that it will be out soon.

And lastly, when CryptoNight currencies like Monero have found hardware wallets like Ledger Nano S, so it means hardware wallet for other CryptoNight currencies is also not very far.
