Magicom is a fraud because:

1. Everything that COPY has done in the last 15 years has been a fraud. If you have a duck, it will lay duck eggs, if you expect an eagle egg, you will be disappointed.

2. From what I've heard, the touch screen is so hard to use it's worthless.

3. Nobody is going to pay $2000 for a Magicom (read fax machine) which can on only talk to other Magicoms. There's no installed base. With computers selling for $800, why would anyone pay this much for this device? It's ludicrous.

4. It's a fraud because in Jan '97 COPY projected selling 1 million Magicoms for the year. I doubt they've sold 10. Well at least they were only off by 5 orders of magnitude!

Why are all the Magicon sightings from "reliable sources"? Never named sources. Never sources recognized in the telephony, computer, or flat panel industries.

What is the HARD EVIDENCE?

$300 million distribution agreements announced one year ago. 10Q March 17, 1998 - no sales. "0".

So they're making it better. What's IT?
