[...] about the issue of radiation levels from the iPhoneÂ before, but have you paid attention? The Pong â€˜radiation caseâ€™ even tried to address this issue. Prior to todayâ€™s announcement, the WHO did not link cancer [...]

Where has politeness gone in this word, sheesh. No need to be insulting. Cellphones emit heat, and there is evidence that this heat held next to a child’s developing brain for any length of time is potentially harmful. The neurologist I work for errs on the side of caution on this one.

Wow there's a lot of discussion about this. As a masters student in nuclear physics I think I know a thing or two about radiation. The bottom line is that the radiation coming out of your cell phone is non-ionizing. Meaning that it doesn't have enough energy per quantum to ionize the atoms in your body; or in other words, it can't completely remove an electron from an atom in your body. Therefore non-ionizing radiation is not mutagenic, it can't change your cellular composition. This means that it's not harmful to you. You probably receive more radiation while standing in front of the bananas at the grocery store. Yes bananas (among almost everything else) are radioactive; in the bananas case, it contains an isotope of Na which is radioactive. There are some health risks from non-ionizing radiation (such as heating) but that only occurs at much higher energies.

If someone would like to send me a case, I'll test it which some very expensive equipment and I'll provide some scientific facts.

For the record, it's hilarious that you're so worked up over something you don't actually know anything about. Also for the record, go read evan_rooney's reply at the bottom in this recent entry:

And now I'll go snicker some more at just how hilarious you are...

Interesting case and yes a little high priced in my opinion.

@above comments.
LMAO
People, its just a blog. Don't post if you got nothing good to say, simple.

Thanks as always for the reviews.

Pity about all the back and forth here. For sure there could have been more on the companies purported science backing. I looked into this product prior to the review, and was pretty skeptical.

This line from their site has made me give them the benefit of the doubt:
Pong is certified by FCC-accredited test agencies to reduce cell phone radiation using the SAR analysis method.

People that think $60 is too much have no idea about R&D or value proposition. It's not a simple mold, it took development and testing expenses to get to market.

If it does do what it says, and we think about exposure over years and years of radiation exposure, it COULD be the best $30 extra you ever spent. Or it might not. It's an insurance policy.

I'll be getting one for my wife and I as soon as they're in Canada. I was hoping when I saw the review that they were. : (

Just like nicotine isn't addictive right? You've got to be shitting me. Are you some industry slut? Anyone who DOESNT think cell phone RADIATION isn't harmful should have THEIR head examined.

Oh wait. You're refering to the studies that show it's safe? You mean the ones done and edited by the same people that profit from cell phone sales? Give your head a shake child.

Do some REAL research before you start running your mouth about shit you have no real comprehension about. You think it's safe because the government says it's safe? Again the same government that makes billions off wireless spectrum auctions? Look at the governments track record for protecting consumers, doesn't look very good does it?

If you're actually interested to learn about some unbiased studies, do some research on the work of Dr. George Carlo. The guy who did a 22million dollar study on cell phone EMF funded by the industry, when his results showed harm and that the government was failing to protect the public he was subsequently fired and his study censored and unpublished.

How about the multi billion dollar class action lawsuits happening all over the world?

Next you're going to reply that I'm a conspiracy theorist and have a one sided option. Please. Do so. Because you've come to a battle of facts, unarmed.
