This is very topical: And a large scientific body has not quashed the idea, but I am very skeptical. There has been a gargantuan increase in cell phones (hello), and there has been no increase in cancers of the head and neck or brain. The "once for all" answer is not in. For phone you can blue-tooth, and using at arms length for hand-held internetting reduces whatever small wave that might be a concern.

So would we all: The studies looking at a link between brain tumors and cell phone use are not conclusive.

Equivocal evidence: Three are different opinions and a lack of incontrovertible, objective evidence to answer the question "once and for all". A marginal increase in risk may take a long time to distinguish from the background incidence of cancer.
