Possibly unsafe: Potential adverse effects. There is limited studies/data, but some early analysis is worrisome: http://goo.Gl/30iam and http://goo.Gl/qevno and http://goo.Gl/5fdir and http://goo.Gl/hqjgb until we know more/have more studies, best advice is to be cautious and have a pillow under your laptop while on your lap.
