One co-worker used to place his cellphone under his computer monitor for convenience. Once in a while he'd hear a buzzing coming from the speakers built into the monitor.
Another co-worker kept his cellphone on top of his Zune while listening to music. Once in a while he'd get a little static through the earphones. We surmised one day that as the phone communicates with the tower on a regular basis the interference was picked up. I've kept mine away from my body as much as possible since.

I have no doubt that the noise is real. However, I suspect that the wrong culprit may have been identified. I'd like to throw out the possibility that the noise was not related to an electronic device or radio waves at all, but instead could be tinnitus. Mild case of it and only perceivable when things are ultra quiet. And then when this person moves her head it disrupts the effect and the sound stops. Or I could be all wet.
