I wonder what the power output ratings are for wireless computer devices
Oh Roy I am worrying now - my kids use wireless computers and the cordless phones and mobiles too

its like food in a restaurant if you knew what they added to the food you would probably not eat it. Also why is it that all the nice things in life like cakes and crisps tend to be bad for you or put weight on you? My theory is to enjoy life today and take the cosequences tomorrow

They seem to have conclusive results - I'm no scientist and wouldn't have a clue but it's always interesting and good to keep ones finger on the pulse

But this is saying that cordless phones are not classed as cellular and therefore aren't harmful like mobiles etc.
Unless I've misread your post MC and this wasn't the original article you read?
Or I've misread the article and I'm wrong on both counts, which for me on a day like today is very possible!
