Mobile Phone Radiation Print

Normally I am not much of an alarmist on these topics, but a little knowledge and caution can be smart.  Two ways to reduce your exposure to radiation:

Buy a low radiation phone from the list

Change how you use the phone

Further complicating the issue is there are two divisions of radiation  non-ionizing and ionizing radiation.   Ionizing radiation has ability to remove electrons from their orbit, so are less destructive. Mobile phones emit the non-ionizing radiation.  More from the EPA   Apparently cell phones, radios, TV's are the non-ionizing.

So, like usual, do some reading and form your own conclusions.

Your Wireless Network is like Swiss Cheese Print

You may have been an early adopter of wireless networking.  That's great, but that's dangerous if you have not upgraded your gear lately.

The 802.11b with WEP standard is very easily hacked.  The 802.11g WPA standard is better, but you must use a long passphrase.
