SAR rating for new iphone 3Gs

I have looked for the SAR rating for the new iphone 3Gs to see how much radiation it emits. Most phones list the SAR rating in their technical specs, but I cannot find any reference to the SAR rating of the new iphone. Does anyone know, or perhaps I overlooked something in the specs. The last version of iphone 3G was about 1.38, a not particularly good number since the maximum allowed is 1.6

funny how much higher the sat rating is for iPhone 3G compared to 2G. I mean the 2G has metal back which is dangerous.

The biggest danger from cell phones is the likelihood of getting killed using it while driving an automobile. That way outways the SAR ratings, but people still do it.
