IIRC, mobile phones are around 1000 times weaker than microwave ovens and WiFi is something like two orders of magnitude weaker again (tho WiMax is presumably stronger).
No study has ever showed mobile phones to cause biological heating (although there are hints of other biological effects), which is the main reason why its not such a good idea to stick your hand in a microwave oven while its operating. They would be dangerous if they weren't constructed as a Faraday cage with an interlocked door. I'm not going to lose sleep over such weak EMI. There's more important things to worry about than imaginary problems.
