If it's not covered by one of those other categories, you should probably talk about it here. Be nice.

Side effects from using 3G wave and normal cellular phones

Post by iblis »

An article I found on /. states that 3G cellular networks' waves can cause headaches and nausea.

But what I found interesting was that they also say that both 3G and normal cellular waves increase overall memory and reaction time.

Odd, that.

Well :iblislink:'s cause headaches and nausea too....I'd say they also increase your memory (you remember quickly not to click them) and your reaction time (you click that window closed really quick).

3G will operate on two different bands, one near the 1790 mhz range and another from 2.5ghz to 2.65... (and quite possibly a third around 5.4 ghz but it just doesn't have the range)

for those of you that don't know, your microwave oven is nothing more than an antenna transmitting white noise at 2.4ghz into a metal box. So it should come to no surprise that exposure to radio waves in the 2.4ghz spectrum can cause headaches - it is, after all, cooking your brain.
yes this is a very simplistic explanation - and i am fully aware that comparing a 1000 watt microwave oven to a 100 milliwatt transciever in a laptop wireless card is not a fair comparison and it would take days of exposure to the wireless card to equal a few seconds of the exposure found inside a microwave oven, but still... it IS cooking your brain, albiet slowly.

yeah comparing a 1000W microwave to a cellphone is a little silly. however, at what voltage and wattage do neurotrasmitters in your brain opperate? It may not be that silly.
