We discuss the newly introduced concept of cone metric spaces. We also discuss the fixed point existence results of contractive mappings defined on such metric spaces. In particular we show that most of the new results are merely copies of the classical ones. 1. Introduction Cone metric spaces were introduced in 1 . A similar notion was also considered by Rzepecki in 2 . After carefully defining convergence and completeness in cone metric spaces the authors proved some fixed point theorems of contractive mappings. Recently more fixed point results in cone metric spaces appeared in 3-8 . Topological questions in cone metric spaces were studied in 6 where it was proved that every cone metric space is first countable topological space. Hence continuity is equivalent to sequential continuity and compactness is equivalent to sequential compactness. It is worth mentioning the pioneering work of Quilliot 9 who introduced the concept of generalized metric spaces. His approach was very successful and used by many see references in 10 . It is our belief that cone metric spaces are a special case of generalized metric spaces. In this work
