>Replacing silicon dioxide with a much thinner class of materials
>known as perovskites, Motorola has built a transistor 3 or 4 times
>smaller and less power-consuming than those currently available,
>yet considerably faster. A Motorola research manager predicts that
>consumers may soon be able to hold cell phone video conferences and
>that the new technology "will let you have the processing power of
>a desktop computer in your cell phone."
