Product Review: The Paper Shedding Phone

There is a simple experience that we probably have all gone through many times in our lifetime. We have all received phone calls that turned out to be very important. The person on the other line asks us to take down some important information. In order to remember the information, we understand the need to write everything down. This results in us running around the house to find a piece of paper, writing on our hands, or even using little post-it notes that always happen to become lost. Finally, a telephone manufacturer has developed one of the most basic concepts ever to help us from running around.

A phone concept has been circulating on the Internet to see what type of reaction it will receive. Currently, the company is keeping mum on who they are, but the public is showing excitement about the idea. What we have here is a concept that the designer of the phone chose. The phone is something so simple and well thought out that it is amazing it took this long to arrive.

The upper half of the "body" of the phone is made up of dozens of sheets of paper. Looking at the phone shows you how the paper carefully fits around the buttons that are strategically placed in the center of the phone. This allows you to write on the paper and easily pull it off. Basically, when you need to write on something, you can do it on your phone. Once you are finished writing, rip off the top sheet of paper and you now have a clan sheet to use.

Simplicity at its ultimate best. You will that the phone does not have a fancy screen to display the number, no touchscreen ability, and not even an answering machine either. What you get is a phone that is just that, a phone. The only added bonus is the fact that you now have the ability to write on the phone because of removable paper. It is awesome to see such a simple solution to a nagging problem that I have had for several years.
