MSN's homepage is a wonder to behold... I've been reading human interest articles like never before. And here's one I came across just this morning. It's long been disputed that cellular phones can cause cancer. While research has been done on this, no conclusive evidence has become solid proof and no consensus has been reached. Still, it's important to know that whethere or not it causes cancer, some radio waves still pass through the body via the cell phone.

In an article in www.cnet.com, it lists the phones with the highest SAR level with the phone next to the ear. The SAR or specific apsorption rate is "a way of measuring the quantity of radiofrequency (RF) energy that is absorbed by the body." The FCC regulation level must be less than 1.6 W/kg.
