New Research - Cellphones affect your Sleep

A new report has come out that suggests that using your cellphone or mobile device before you go to bed, or leaving it near you on the bedside table, can lead to insomnia, headaches and confusion! The study indicates that for people who are more 'electro-sensitive' the radio waves from the phone can affect the brain as it tries to enter deep sleep. Worrying news indeed, especially as many of us now use our mobile phones as alarm clocks.

Although the report concentrates on the effects of electro-magnetic waves, it doesn't consider the other obvious issue about leaving your phone next to your bed... A drunk mate texting you in the middle of the night as they come out of a club, or worse yet - work calling to tell you you've overslept. So inconsiderate of them.
