Intel will soon announce a new 0.09 micron chip etching process:
SAN FRANCISCO -- In a move to keep up in the IC technology race, Intel Corp. plans to soon announce its 90-nm (0.09-micron) process for use in high-speed microprocessors, flash memories, and other chips, said company executives at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF) here.
Intel's move will follow similar announcements of 90-nm process technology by other chip manufacturers in recent months, including Motorola Inc., Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (TSMC), and Texas Instruments Inc.
It doesn't seem too long ago that the 0.13 micron process was revealed. Smaller and faster...always. Read more at SiliconStrategies.

Eventually, getting smaller isn't going to have a noticeable effect, and then we will have to engineer a completely new model.
Now that will be interesting.
