Unknown: The relationship between RF energy and health related issues is a topic of much debate. The FDA has a public information page on radiation-emitting products: http://www.fda.gov/Radiation-EmittingProducts/RadiationEmittingProductsandProcedures/HomeBusinessandEntertainment/CellPhones/default.htm Though there is uncertainty, all can agree that increasing distance from source can help mitigate risk.
