She also said that adults should make an effort to keep the devices away from the head by using wireless ear devices
So let me get this straight...they aren't
sure if the current cell frequencies (most are a few hundred megahertz from 1ghz) are harmful or not, so
their suggestion is to use a wireless headset running in the 2.4 band!? The same frequency range that your microwave uses to boil water!? It's like saying "We're not sure if airbags do more good or bad, so lets just replace them with explosives."
...Quick, someone give them another $20mil to figure out that humans have tons of water in them and "wireless ear devices" run 2.4!

Since, the last time I checked, cellular phones are not made with radioactive material, the devices cannot improve or depress the growth of cancerous cells.All of you blind little sheep here can spam the "thumb down" button all you want, but anyone with any sense will realize the level of bullshit in this article.[/citation]
That is a rather odd comment. This study has nothing to do with radioactive materials and everything to do with radio waves. The wifi and the portable phone in your house can't even transmit down the block, yet cell phones work for miles...you do the math. Low power levels or not, that is some well-penetrating crap.
