According to
Reuters, Nokia is aiming to cut the costs for developing mobile phones by using nanotechnology within the next two or three years.
Nanotechnology deals with manipulating particles one-billionth of a meter in size, and promises benefits from a coating of paint that last decades to faster acting and more effective medicines. Ojanpera [Nokia Chief Strategist] said the new technology would only be used in phone components like casings in the first stage.
