Post Cell phones and Cancer
I recently read a new study that says that cell phones do not, in fact, cause cancer. A previous study has shown that cell phones might cause cancer, but it wasn't for sure.

Do you think these results are valid? Cell phone companies are regulated on the amount of RF waves they can transmit just in case they do cause cancer.

Do you use a cell phone much? I don't worry about it, and use it frequently.

I don't worry about it - It is the only thing I use I don't use the land line as we are never really in the same flat for very long, we have the seasional jobs - so no point in having a land line.

the older style analog phones were found to, in rare cases, cause cancer, supposedly ...

one guy claimed that he only talked on the phone using his right ear ... ten years later, after two years' use of his phone, he developed a tumor behind his right ear, sued the company and won ... scary thing is he used the same cell phone the first two years of its production (the company he sued) and i was still using the same model of phone when he started his lawsuit ... creepy ...

I will not worry about it though - not after everything that has gone on over the last couple of weeks

hmm what can i say is that i do think that mobile phones can not cause more harm to a human body than a laptop for instance;
And i also do not speak to much on the phone so if i have to worry about something this is about my computer.With every new day i think the risk of people getting cancer from radiations coming from mobiles phones decrease as the technology advances;

i have also heard the cell phone causing cancer dilemma? Does anyone really get cancer by these waves? Has science proved this fact? Then we should decrease the use of cell phones in our routine. Do let me know.
