Should we even mention Dr. John Moulder's (not of X-Files fame) article at
http://www.mcw.edu/gcrc/cop/cell-phone-health-FAQ/toc.html Question 22?

He tends to focus on radiological heating instead of other areas of concern,
but the sources are referenced.

BTW, did you see the last episode of Nash Bridges? (Detective show in San
Francisco, CA for those outside the USA) The latest "thorn" in his side
(Female Investigator) was using one of the new flip-cell phones with the
antennae extended almost 90 degrees from the head! She was also driving an
electric car and making rude comments about Nash's  gas guzzling 'Cuda.

What kinds of EMF studies have been done on the new California Electrics?
