My contact at Elonex just sent me a bunch of stuff on their latest gadgets. They’ve recently added another 7″ e-reader and a 7″ tablet to their offerings. First up is the 705EB. This e-reader is an improved version of the 700EB that’s both thinner and lighter (but the same screen resolution). It has the [...]

Review: Elonex 700EB
January 13th, 2011 · 12 Comments · hardware reviews
So I wrote this review on a plane over Tennessee on my way to CES 2011. I brought the 700EB along not just so I could write the review but because the video and ebook abilities make it a pretty decent multi-function device. Unfortunately, I put it down on a counter at CES and turned [...]
Review: Elonex 500EB
December 14th, 2010 · 8 Comments · Gajah Reviews, hardware reviews
This e-reader has popped up in several places over the last year. We first saw it on the JCPenney website last November, and it then showed up under the Copia brand. Both fell through, and it finally showed up under the Elonex brand. I’ve also been told by the manufacturer, Gajah,that it will be sold [...]
Waterstones lower price on 5″ Elonex e-reader
November 16th, 2010 · 1 Comment · hardware news
Waterstones announced today that they’ve dropped the price of the Elonex 500EB e-reader to £79.99. This now makes the 5″ e-reader the second cheapest available in the UK, after that of the Imagin 5″, which is being sold by Waterstone’s competitor, WH Smith, for £64.99. The extra 5 pounds is worth, IMO. The 500EB supports [...]

Elonex 500EB, 500FB will be supported by the Freebook ebook library
September 16th, 2010 · 1 Comment · hardware news
Elonex announced a bunch of tablets and e-readers last week at IFA. I thought these 2 were worth noting. Elonex pulled a rather interesting trick with the 500EB and 500FB. You see, they’re actually the same device. This e-reader has s a 5″ LCD screen (no touchscreen, no wifi), 1GB or 2GB Flash, SDHC card [...]
Elonex 621EB, 631EB e-readers – Wifi, E-ink
September 14th, 2010 · 4 Comments · hardware news
I was following up yesterday on the Next1 e-reader, and rather than wait for Nextbook to get back to me I contacted Elonex for details (the hardware is the same). Elonex responded early this morning with links to the press kits for all of their devices, and I’m a little surprised at how many models [...]
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 [...]

Pocket-lint stopped by the booth today and snapped some photos of 6 of the new gadgets. Pocket-lint didn’t get much detail in the way of specs, but they do know that the new line will retail from £99 to £159. The £159 is for a 10.1 Android tablet. The keyboard/case is an extra £39. The [...]
Elonex 710EB nowhere to be found
August 14th, 2010 · No Comments · hardware news
Do you recall the 7″ e-reader/tablet that Elonex showed us back in April? It finally showed up on Amazon.co.uk last month, and was supposed to ship on 31 July. The retail was £139.99,which was considerably higher than the original projected price of £99.99. Well, this e-reader came up on my calendar again today, and I [...]
