Radio Frequency ( RF) & Microwave Prevention Tips from Safe Living Technologies
Excerpt:
"Avoid the use of cordless telephones. Most new models (DECT) base stations constantly transmit RF radiation even when they are not in use.
If a cordless phone is necessary, choose 900 MHz cordless phone before higher frequency phones. Most 2.4 GHz and 5.8 GHz phones base stations constantly broadcast where as the majority of 900 MHz phones do not. Also the 900 MHz cordless phones use an analogue signal where the 2.4 GHz and the 5.8 GHz phones use more biologically damaging pulsed digital signals."

A group in Santa Fe says the city is discriminating against them because they say that they're allergic to the wireless Internet signal. And now they want Wi-Fi banned from public buildings.
Arthur Firstenberg says he is highly sensitive to certain types of electric fields, including wireless Internet and cell phones.
"I get chest pain and it doesn't go away right away," he said.
Firstenberg and dozens of other electro-sensitive people in Santa Fe claim that putting up Wi-Fi in public places is a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The city attorney is now checking to see if putting up Wi-Fi could be considered discrimination.
But City Councilor Ron Trujillo says the areas are already saturated with wireless Internet.
"It's not 1692, it's 2008. Santa Fe needs to embrace this technology, it's not going away," Trujillo said.
The city attorney hopes to have a legal recommendation by the end of the month.

There's a new Wi-Fi provider coming to your local Starbucks, and this one is offering some of its services for free. Outmaneuvering its smaller rival T-Mobile, AT&T announced on Monday a new partnership with the coffee giant to start offering its own brand of Wi-Fi services this spring.
Once the rollout is complete, those who use Starbucks Cards will also be able to browse for up to two hours free at 7,000 Starbucks locations in the U.S, the wireless provider said. Additionally, coffee drinkers without a Starbucks Card can purchase tiered access to the AT&T Wi-Fi network at Starbucks for $4 for two hours. Monthly membership will also be offered at $20 per month, compared to T-Mobile's current rates of $6 an hour, $10 a day, and $30 per month.
Monday's deal also means AT&T is now set to completely replace T-Mobile as the main Wi-Fi provider at various U.S.-based Starbucks locations. The relationship between T-Mobile and Starbucks will all but end once rollout is complete, a Starbucks spokesperson confirmed.There's a new Wi-Fi provider coming to your local Starbucks, and this one is... more
