December 27th, 2010 · 1 Comment · ebookstore news
The Copia team sent out this tweet today. I bet the announcement will be one of 2 things: We’re not dead yet, or We’re closing up shop I have $10 or the first. Any takers? via Twitter

November 19th, 2010 · 1 Comment · hardware news
Anthony Antolino, Senior VP at DMC Wordwide (Copia’s corp. parent), has abruptly left his position only days after the launch of Copia. He sent around an email: My time at Copia and DMC Worldwide has come to an end. As many of you know, I have spent the past 4 years developing and repositioning the [...]
Copia finally abandoned the e-reader market
November 17th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware news
One detail I left out of my Copia announcement last night was the status of their e-readers. It was a pretty big lapse, and I’m surprised no one noticed. i didn’t mention the e-readers because one, there was only a single mention of a tablet on the Copia website (no release date), and two, I [...]

2 New Elonex e-reader videos from IFA – Copia fans take note
September 6th, 2010 · No Comments · conferences & trade shows, hardware reviews, video
IFA-Berlin is still in full wing today and the videos are still coming. Sidenote: There was also a Boox 60S video. I added it to the post announcing the Bebook Club. The first video shows the Elonex 500EB. The Elonex rep holding it really knows what he’s doing. I learned a number of things from [...]
Copia are a 2nd rate Goodreads clone
September 1st, 2010 · 3 Comments · software reviews
I got a beta invite for Copia a couple weeks ago and I’ve been playing around with the site on and off. I’m not impressed. It’s not that I hate the site; it’s just that I don’t see a reason to join Copia instead of one of their competitors. Footnote: If you want to see [...]
New details on Copia’s Kindle clone e-reader
August 16th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware news
You might recall about 2 weeks ago that Copia announced a whole new line of e-readers which replaced the Epaper based ones that were demoed at CES 2010. I just found some more information on the crappy Kindle clone. I bet you’re wondering what happened to those e-readers we saw at CES (the ones still [...]
Copia just revealed their new line of e-readers
July 29th, 2010 · 6 Comments · hardware news
CrunchGear has more information on the Copia e-readers we saw in the WSJ. Copia have totally revamped their lineup. Do you know those really neat E-ink based readers I saw at CES (and are still on the Copia website)? They’re all gone. Now Copia have 4 LCD devices and only one rather crappy Kindle clone [...]
Copia reveal an LCD tablet
July 29th, 2010 · 2 Comments · hardware news
It’s only 5″, so calling it a tablet is something of a stretch. The Wall Street Journal has the story, but there is hardly any detial or specs for the e-reader. Fortunately, I’ve seen the hardware before. An e-reader with the same image popped up on JCPenney’s website back in November. That e-reader had the [...]
