While there may be no larger risk for cancer, I've got to be concerned when I'm on the other side of the house and my wife knows that I'm about to get a call or an e-mail because the speakers in the living room start to buzz.

Anyway, I just try to limit my use as much as possible. There really hasn't been a complete study and I don't know how they determined use. I've got the thing constantly - always @ my hip when not in use, get a ton of e-mails, respond to quite a few of them, don't call that often due to the e-mail functionality. I don't know if their sample set was composed of people who use a cell phone for maybe up to an hour a day and don't have it near them 24x7. I know it sounds cynical, but I agree with the previous posters - who funded the study?
