We are a nation grown numb to the seemingly endless fine print that accompanies our purchases. But every now and then a product is sold with a warning that should command attention. Consider the little-noticed bit of legalese that comes in the safety manual for Apple's iPhone 4: "When using iPhone near your body for voice calls or for wireless data transmission over a cellular network, keep iPhone at least 15 mm (5/8 inch) away from the body, and only use carrying cases, belt clips, or holders that do not have metal parts and that maintain at least 15 mm (5/8 inch) separation between iPhone and the body," the warning reads.


This is a weird article to read from Yahoo. What do you think of the article and the cell phone risk? Are you going to run out to buy a case?

Considering there are warnings on nearly any commercial building, cars, and just about anything else that say there are chemicals known to cause cancer in the premises or object, cell phones are probably the least of my worries. However, that doesn't mean a little precaution wouldn't hurt. For example, sleeping with it on/under your pillow might be a bad idea...
