That is a recurring technophobe boogieman that resurrects at regular intervals. First it was the Nokias, when they were kings of the hill. Now it is the iPhones, which coincidentally hold the most visible spot. Betcha if Brand X dethrones Apple soon, their phones will be a deathly threat to humanity the next day. In the meanwhile, haven't seen "death due to fried brains" rise anywhere in the statistics. Not even in Cupertino.


More likely to croak due to having your eyes glued to the screen while driving/walking/pooping and failing to pay attention to surrounding threats. And that applies to ALL smartphones.

No. I'm saying that the SAR rating is meaningless. If I tell you that a unicorn needs .2 acres of space and my pasture is 3 acres, you could tell me how many unicorns I could keep. Your math would be accurate. But, the answer would still be meaningless as there is no such thing as unicorns.
