Bored of Mobile phones
Finnish Mobile giant, Nokia, would like to jump on the netbook bandwagon, according to the firm's CEO, Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo.
In a television interview with Finnish broadcaster YLE, Kallasvuo noted his company was "looking very actively" at plans to make little laptops.
"What we know as a cellphone and what we know as a PC are in many ways converging", said Kallasvuo who added millions of people were losing their Internet virginity for the first time on their mobile phones.
The announcement comes just a week after Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, where PC makers including Acer, HP and Lenovo unveiled new smartphone offerings, muscling in on what Nokia sees as its territory.
During his keynote at MWC, Kallasvuo had hinted at the shift by calling Nokia's latest offerings "mobile computers" rather than smartphones.
