The sensor wasn't made with any special "nanotechnology".. It's the same microelectronics semiconductor technology you can find in any computer, tv, phone, etc. Actually it is probably made with an even older technology node than you might find in any one of those consumer products currently. The use a 4000nanometer pixel in their camera... big whoop they win should win an award for graduating from any 1st semester science class for knowing how to convert units.. 4000nanometer = 4 micron. Regular CCD or CMOS image sensors are routinely sub 2-micron. Technology review folks need to be better educated and beware of catchy trendy words. The technique that Planet82 is/was using is unique and truly innovative, but everyone should ask themselves why nobody has seen or heard anything from them since CES 2007, were they all smoke and mirrors and a great parlor trick...
