And they won't blow away your WiFi, necessarily.  A 2.4 GHz phone will 
interfere with your WiFi if it's on the same frequencies.  How much is 
problematic.  The biggest problem is that the phone will change 
frequencies as needed to avoid interference so it might not cause a 
problem today but may tomorrow and then not again the next day (or hour).
