Mobile phone safety

Not really money-saving, but with the uptake of mobile phones, it's probably worth knowing about the recent news about the European Union-funded Reflex research that "Radio waves from mobile phones do harm body cells and damage DNA".

However, there's no need to panic just yet: the results are unpublished and are inconclusive. Further research needs to be done.
