We’ve seen many expositions about the risk and danger of radiofrequency emissions from
cell-phone antennae. As a
bystander to the whole issue, I don’t understand why the manufacturers don’t design the
phones so the antenna comes out by the mouthpiece. First, it would be a more natural location
for grabbing and extending, and second, it would put the antenna out in front of the face instead
of alongside the head.
