We haven't had this discussion in a while. There's always the crowd who
says "it is impossible for a cellphone to affect your body except by
heating", the crowd who says "it'll give you cancer", and a few who say
"we're not sure why there are effects, or what their significance is,
but they do exist". This article falls into that last camp.
...Horne and his colleagues controlled a Nokia 6310e cell phone -
"another popular and basic phone" attached to the head of 10 healthy
but sleep-deprived men in their sleep research lab. (Their sleep had
been restricted to six hours the previous night.) The researchers then
monitored the men's brainwaves by EEG while the phone was switched on
and off by remote computer, and also switched between "standby,"
"listen" and "talk" modes of operation for 30 minute intervals on
different nights. The experiment revealed that after the phone was
switched to "talk" mode a different brain-wave pattern, called delta
waves (in the range of one to four Hertz), remained dampened for
nearly one hour after the phone was shut off...
