Environmental Working Group: Radiation levels of wireless phones

The Environmental Working Group has recently released their ratings on radiation emissions for wireless phones. I have previously blogged on them regarding sunscreen here.

The maximum level needs to be less than 1.6 W/kg. It looks like the HTC Touch Diamond may be the lowest emitting model that is still in production at 0.86. The HTC Touch Pro is 0.91. The iPhone 3G S emits up to 1.19.

My Centro model emits up to 1.35.

There's a bunch of models that are not rated. You can view the complete list by clicking here. If you are interested in PDA/Smartphones you can click here.

Environmental Working Group - Which Sunscreen?

Heard about their site earlier today.  They have a section just for parents.
 
Here's a section on Sunscreen usage. Click here to go directly to their best/worst lists (which is searchable).  Important to read since the sunny months are on their way.
