Well I haven't heard anyone talking about this for a long time now and
the last time it was brought up it was by a troll in newsgroup.

1. Do you hold a wireless LAN up to your head?

2. If you are so worried about the radiation from your cell or cordless
phone then get a portable hands free kit (wired) for it, then hold the
phone at arms length. This will not only keep the RF further away from
your body but will result in a lower power output from the phone because
it is clear of your body.

If you are still *paranoid* it is YOUR problem and nobody else's!
