Weak points
• Not waterproof: avoid moisture (but everyone wish to stay home when it rains)
• Not fireproof: avoid flames (unless you want to destroy sensible data or use it as a torch)
• Fragile: easy to crumple (but easy to rebuild and data are never lost anyway)
• Construction requires a printer or printing service (but you could draw it by hand in case)
• Pencil and rubber not included (but store mini-sized tools inside the paperphone)
• Not a pricey brand with which one may flaunt wealth (but you can say you paid the artist much)
