Brain Cancer Fears Over Heavy Mobile Phone Use Resurface Down Under

smh.com.au's Asher Moses reports:

A top Australian neurosurgeon says the world's heavy reliance on mobile phones could be a greater threat to human health than smoking and even asbestos.

Vini Khurana, who conducted a 15-month "critical review" of the link between mobile phones and malignant brain tumours, said using mobiles for more than 10 years could more than double the risk of brain cancer.

He has called for "immediate and decisive steps" by industry and governments to reduce people's exposure to invisible electromagnetic radiation emitted by handsets.

Dr Khurana also called for a "solid scientific study" observing heavy mobile phone users for a period of at least 10-15 years.

Canadian iPhone Trademark Status Update!

iphoneworld.ca's dennis reports:

iPhone World reader Roberto sends news that the Canadian Trademarks database was just updated with new information relating to the iPhone trademark in Canada.

As it’s known, currently Apple and Canadian VoIP provider Comwave are battling it out over the iPhone trademark in Canada (most likely, Comwave, a small-medium scale company operating from Toronto is seeking a settlement - although we’re only speculating here).

Canadian iPhone trademark registration page was updated on March 25 2008, and it claims that the preliminary report will be complete at the end of June 2008. Whether Canadians will need to wait until July to get the iPhone, only Apple and some Canadian officials probably knows for sure, but for now the trademark is not registered to either Apple nor Comwave.
