Motorola phones leak highest radiation levels

Might you glow in the dark
Monday, 5 June 2006, 16:43
A SURVEY by the people at News.com has listed the mobile phones that leak the highest levels of radiation.

Out of ten, Motorola seems to have clocked the top nine with radiation levels of between 1.58 and 1.51.

These figures have not yet been proven to make you glow in the dark, cause your hair fall out, your testicles go green or think the Citroen Berlingo is a nice car.

In fact all these levels are well within the safety limits, which are unlikely to change while doctors violently disagree about how dangerous mobile phones are.

To be fair to Motorola, it did manage to get two phones into News.com's list of least radioactive too.

The list of shame runs as follows:
1. Motorola Slvr L6 1.58
2. Motorola V120c 1.55
3. Motorola V265 1.55
4. Motorola V70 1.54
5. Motorola C290 1.53
6. Motorola P8767 1.53
7. Motorola ST7868 1.53
8. Motorola ST7868W 1.53
9. Motorola A845 1.51
10.Palm Treo 650 GSM 1.51

The top ten of phones emitting the lowest levels of radiation is:

1. Audiovox PPC660010.12
2. Motorola MPx200 0.2 3.
3. Motorola Timeport L70890.22
4. Qualcomm pdQ-19000.2634
5. T-Mobile Sidekick0.276
6. Samsung SGH-S1000.296
7. Samsung SGH-S1050.296
8. Sony Ericsson Z6000.31
