We have heard this claim before. Too much exposure and use of mobile handsets may lead to cancer. Mobile phone companies have denied this of course, coming out with their own share of studies on the radiation that mobile handsets emit. However a $30 million study may have finally stumbled upon the truth in linking mobile phones and cancer.

This decade-long study has discovered how long-term use of mobile phones are linked to brain tumors. This study by the World Health Organization is expected to be released soon but as early as now, mobile phone users may want to re-think how often and how much they use their cellular phones.

The New York Times has an interesting article talking about Cell Refuseniks which is what it calls those people that refuse to use a cell phone. Can you believe that’s happening? In this modern day and age where communication is so important, the cell phone is no longer a luxury item but a necessity. We want to talk to our friends, send SMS messanges and emails, Twitter and update Facebook profiles as often as possible. Cell phones can get us out of various jams and I wouldn’t leave the house without my handest. But not everybody will agree with me!

I will have to admit that I was such a person a long long while ago. I saw cell phones as the enemy, a thing that will allow others to track me down whenever they felt like it. And I certainly didn’t want that. But now I can’t imagine not having a cell phone around.

How about you? Have you ever considered not using a cell phone anymore?
