Top mobile phone maker Nokia could start using nanotechnology in its phones within the next two to three years to help keep costs low amid fierce price pressures, a top official was quoted as saying.
"In order for there to be three billion mobile phones in the world by 2010, costs will have to be on a completely new level," Nokia Chief Strategist Tero Ojanpera told Finnish business daily Taloussanomat on Wednesday.
"Phones below 150 euros are a very important segment for us where we are developing cost effective solutions. They could come from nanotechnology," said Ojanpera.
