Apple has used nano technology before in iPod nano
Rumors have it that iPhone 5 will adapt to Nano technology in a big way. The rumor probably sprouts from the fact that Apple has already used nano technology in iPod. It is very likely that the company will use the technology in iPhone 5 as well. But will a nano version turn out to be feasible from economic and profitability point of view is the question to be addressed. The use of nano technology might be a very likely solution that can be used to create a low-cost device, which will increase the already huge customer base of the company.Nano technology can be a solution to smaller and cheaper smart phones
Nano refers to tiny particles. In nano technology, microscopic particles are used as functional elements. Not only does the technology provide scope for making smaller devices, it also makes devices light weight and easy to handle. Tiny processors can be used to great effect using this technology, in the wake of the rumor that Apple is supposedly bringing out a smaller and low cost version with iPhone 5, it is being speculated that nano technology might be at play again. Since the technology is not new to Apple, the rumor might as well have shreds of reality. While still a rumor and in all probability, might not surface anytime soon, the expectation regarding a nano iPhone 5 is definitely food for thought.
