If real, I wonder what it is doing to our brains.   :o

I think it's fake, then again try it and see if it does work, then worry about your brain ;D

Fake. Started by a bluetooth headset sales company, apparently.

imo, real or fake not important.. :-/

mobile market profits are enormous and surely will have long arms to reach everywhere..

mobiles are small microwave ovens not different imo.. and considering my experience if I use for a long time in a day makes headache on me..

just google "mobile dangerous for health" and see ;D

so I try to use "normal" phones whenever possible..

I'm not saying I couldn't generate enough RF to cook popcorn, of the bystanders, for that matter, just not from a mobile phone. ;)

That's because you are subconsciously applying pressure to your ear.
