    Default iPhone 3G = Cancer?

    I don't want to take any chances here but will 3G iPhone affect your health in the long run?

    click others to see how the old iPhone compares with iPhone 3G, and the old one is pretty high!

    EDIT: I'm not saying we have to throw away our iPhone, but let's be cautious about it.

    As a good friend always loves to say: everything and anything will cause cancer. So why be a social outcast and avoid iPhones?
    Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Matthew 22:37-40

    We're more likely to get cancer from the pollution of Manila and eating fastfoods compared to the iPhone's radiation.

    Either Microsoft or Nokia made this theory up. And while were in the topic, VISTA causes migraines.

    The funny thing is, motorola V3x has the lowest radiation rating. I won't account to throw my iPhone away, but I will take extra precautions. Like switching it to flight mode at sleep (so that I can have it as a alarm) and who wants to receive calls at 4 in the morning?

    hmmm.... there's a 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 001% of ANYONE getting cancer from an iPhone, let alone any cellphone.

    You're at more risk of getting cancer from smoking, drinking and sticking your head in a microwave oven.

    oh and while we're at it, your iPhone won't blow up your gas tank either.

    i think pinoys will probably develop hand cancer before brain cancer in this case.

    Even 'abstinence' causes a benign condition that may lead to cancer (prostate)…
