But you knew that anyway...

Instead of storing phones in pockets or on belts, it's better to carry them in a bag or something that keeps them at least an inch from your body. (Both iPhone and Blackberry manuals already recommend this.) Also, the WHO recommends using "hands free devices" like headsets to talk on the phone, or texting rather than calling, both of which can help reduce risks for glioma.

The only thing I know for sure is that you should keep your chest and sack off of my laptop.
