Qingming Festival(also called Tomb-Sweeping Day) is a very important traditional festival in China, and this is the most important day for people to offer sacrifice to ancestors. Following the tradition, paper versions of money, fake luxury items, and, yes, consumer electronics are burned as offerings to the dead. Since the most popular gadget so far is Apple’s iPad 2, iPhone 4, so people are spending 10 yuan (about $2) to buy it, and burn it. Amazingly, one shopkeeper in Malaysia said his stock of 300 paper iPad 2s sold out quickly, leaving him unable to meet demand.
Interesting huh? According to Reuters, prayer item shopkeeper Jeffrey Te is selling the paper versions of iPad and iPad 2 at a dollar for 888GB capacity(My gosh,that's huge), an auspicious number in Chinese culture.
So, with iPad 2 (888gb), and iPhone4, the ancestors could have a very comfortable afterlife in another world, OK,let's have a good look these unbelievable beatiful idevices made of Paper:
iPad
iPhone 4
iPod Nano
