Well there have been studies that show that cell phones do emit radiation. So Yes, sorry.

It seems unlikely, even if your ears were next to your gonads :-) Cell phones operate on VERY low power - like a few watts. A little tiny Christmas tree bulb uses one watt, so that's like saying you're going to get cancer from a string of lites on your tree. Not too likely, I have a sneakin' suspicion. As to radiation: EVERYTHING emits radiation. Even PEOPLE emit tiny pulses; that's how an EEG works. It's just not NUCLEAR radiation. Your cell phone emits the same kind of radiation as a simple transistor radio - electromagnetic radiation. Your cell just doesn't emit NEARLY as much, and it emits most of it as heat (which is part of the electromagnetic spectrum just like visible light, radio waves, infrared, microwave, and ultraviolet wavelengths). It's a question of power, not wavelengths, and with only 3 - 4 watts of power, it's not something to sit around and worry about. You have a lot bigger chance of getting zapped by your microwave ;-)
