Let’s face it, we all hate the feeling of dropping your phone and thinking that the screen just may have cracked once you hear that loud thud. Well, the future may consist of completely flexible like the PaperPhone that will eliminate that awkward feeling of breaking your fragile phone, because this one actually bends and is nearly paper thin. Bending the corners allows the user to make calls, navigate through the phone, or even select and listen to music. Take a look at the PaperPhone in action after the jump.

What: iOS 4.3.3 Update
Made By: Apple
Price: Free
Hey users of all things Apple, the iOS 4.3.3 update is finally available. The latest version of iOS comes after Apple’s promise to address users’ concerns over location data collection by addressing several “bugs” that Apple said were to blame for its devices storing a year’s worth of location data in unencrypted logs.
This update contains changes to the iOS crowd-sourced location database cache including and the reduction of the size of the cache no longer backs the cache up to iTunes and deletes it entirely when Location Services is turned off.
Maybe Big Brother isn’t being helped by Apple after all.

So if you are surprised, or something is holding your attention, the ears stand straight up, but if you are more relaxed the ears flop down just like an actual feline. We don’t know how well this will catch on in the U..S but only time will tell. Check out the Necomimi ears in action after the jump.
