    All I heard about was that the vibration of the phone could affect your health, but I don't think that it could cause a brain tumor.

    No.

    Not only has this not been proven, there is no rational scientific basis for how it COULD.

    Radio frequency radiation below the visual spectrum (which includes all cell phone radiation) is not ionizing, and has no ability to change the electrochemical properties of living tissue.

    This is merely an urban myth.

    As if we needed further proof, the journal of the National Cancer Institute published a study not long ago that followed the caner histories of 420,000 cell phone users over 13 years, and found no variations from the general population.

    In terms of the EM energy from your phone.. there are far more things you should be worried about, sunlight, radiowaves, background radiation..

    There is actually a very active debate on this subject. The FDA and the American Cancer Society are not on the bandwagon, but others are.
