Nokia's
CEO in an interview with Finnish broadcaster YLE has confirmed that the company is looking to make an entry into the laptop market.
"We are looking very actively also at this opportunity. We don't have to look even for five years from now to see that what we know as a cellphone and what we know as a PC are in many ways converging," said Nokia's CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo, reports Reuters.
It wouldn't be a very big leap for Nokia considering the company's highest-end smartphones. With the booming netbook market and Nokia's clout in mobile phone
industry, they'll be knocking on all the right doors.
PC-makers are increasingly stepping into the mobile phone territory and according to Ben Wood, research director at CCS Insight, all leading mobile network operators and retailers are adding connected notebooks and netbooks to their portfolios alongside mobile phones. So on the basis of this it's not surprising that Nokia is looking at this option.
