Thane,
Can you share links to read?
Never heard this one.
I read about this about a year ago when I was looking at new
phones. Don't have the links now, but basically, the concern is that
DECT phones transmit all the time, whereas older phones only transmit
when you're talking on them. Therefore if you have the unit beside
your bed or on your desk, you are bathed in radiation from the device
8 hours per day. Is the radiation dangerous? A lot of people say
the claim is ridiculous, but given that the new versions of DECT
phones now have low rad ratings, I'm a bit leery.
Here are the links I found on a quick search today.
