Nokia may enter laptop industry, CEO says

Nokia, the world’s leading mobile phone manufactuer, is considering entering the laptop business, CEO Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo said in an interview to Finnish national broadcaster YLE today.

“We are looking very actively also at this opportunity,” Kallasvuo said, when asked whether Nokia plans to make laptops.

Kallasvuo also said he believes Nokia can win more market share in the current downturn, but said the firm needs to cut more costs.
