The smallest iPhone holds 8 BILLION characters. That is, if you printed it out at an average of 1000 characters per page (maybe a little light, but the math is easy) it's a MILLION pages of text. A case of paper contains 5,000 sheets of paper. So you are talking about 200 cases of paper (2,000 reams). Of course, the largest iPads hold 8 times that.
