If anyone listened to the public health academic who wrote "The Secret History of the War On Cancer" some of the most quoted studies done on cell phone radiation have severe methodological flaws and even if they were good might been inadequate for assessing the brain cancer risk 20 or 30 years out (which is the appropriate scale for the development of brain cancer) One reason minors should not have cell phones except for emergency use.
That said, bluetooth would seem to be a much less intense radiation source and if it had 10 times less of cancer risk than cell phones, I would not be surprised in the slightest. The same advice about avoiding cell phones for minors goes for aspartame.

However another customer I was talking to about cell phones, etc. said that bluetooth headpieces deliver as much radiation to the head as using the cellphone directly, near your head, maybe more. Bluetooth is one thing, bluebrain is another; anyone know if this is true? If so I may well return the bluetooth and just stick to regular, corded headpiece, which is admittedly less convenient. I vaguely recall this coming up here before but can't locate the posts.
