The new FCC SAR and MPE requirement applies to what you mentioned. The cellular phone is measured by SAR (mW/cubic cm). The actual case is much more complicated than the legal requirement if you read those papers. I have cell phone, too, and try not to use it whenever possible. Then why did you spend the money in the first place? The answer is I don't know. :)
