Can your fancy iPhone squish up into a compact, portable ball or stretch out into a full-sized keyboard? That's part of the promise/tease of a newly announced joint nanotechnology project between Nokia and the University of Cambridge. Called Morph, the technology is working on turning a fiber similar to spider silk into the basis for all manner of flexible, shape-shifting gear.
Morph-based handsets, besides assuming numerous forms, theoretically would clean themselves, recharge by solar energy, be transparent where that helps and much more. Nokia hopes to have handsets incorporating Morph on the market in seven years. Watch the video for more.
