As far as I know the loudest voice are all very sure that there is no ill-effect. I have noticed quite a good numbers are "non-bias" studies funded by Cellphone makers, Electrical companies, etc. IEEE spectrum ran an article some months back about the possible ill-effect about cellphone, and this invited strong debuttal from members of the IEEE International Committee on Electromagnetic Safety , and from former and current members of IEEE Committee on Man and Radiation (COMAR). The latest response from the author published on Dec2002 issue of Spectrum prompted my earlier question: "The latest release of C95.1 was based on studies done in the 1960s through 1985. The baseline for the safety margin for near-field exposure in C95.1 cited by the members of COMAR is based on thermal damage to tissue. The very timeframe of this research precludes the use of the advances in technology and research techniques available today. Nor was this body of experiments designed to study cellular-level damage from long-term, low-level exposure.
