Bluetooth is a ubiquitous technology today and it is hard to imagine life without it. In fact, you can find it practically in every other electronic gadget that it has become next to impossible to picture a gadget without having some form of Bluetooth connectivity. The thing about Bluetooth is that it can be found in places that you previously might not have thought about.

Now, you can put a lot more information in the device and be sure that it is exactly the kind of product that you might be looking for.

There is Bluetooth option available for the serial port interface as well. In fact, this is called as Bluetooth RS232 and with this one can have Bluetoothtechnology running from a serial port. If you think about it, it is quite a cool technology and one that enables older hardware to have Bluetooth as well. Consequently, older equipment that was previously incompatible with Bluetooth will now be able to effectively communicate with each another. This is something that you would definitely want to have if you would like to avoid expensive upgrades.

There are over 4 billion cell phone users throughout the world today – that’s about 4 people out of every 6 living on this planet and owning a cell phone, subscribed to a cellular phone plan, or living with someone who owns a mobile phone. The ubiquity of wireless phones brings to the fore certain issues related to this device, like cell phone dangers to human health.

All mobile phones, when turned on, emit electromagnetic radiation in the microwave radio frequency range. It is this cell phone radiation, as it is absorbed by human tissue (most commonly in the head, as you place the phone next to your ear when you talk) that has come under intense scrutiny this past decade. Several epidemiological and experimental studies have associated prolonged cell phone use to sleeping disorder, cognitive problems, headaches, stress, brain tumors, and cancer.

Experiment Without Controls
On the other hand, studies with opposing results and observations have also been published. CTIA, the wireless industry’s lobbying association pointed out to studies or statements from the World Health Organization (WHO), the American Cancer Society, and the FDA downplaying potential cell phone dangers, “all have concurred that wireless devices are not a public health risk.”

Protect Yourself
Today, at the Consumer Electronics Show 2010 in Las Vegas, a company called Pong Research has announced the availability of a product called Pong™ BlackBerry Curve™ Case which claims to reduce users’ exposure to mobile phone radiation by 60%. Until this product is introduced by other manufacturers to cover other brands and will be marketed widely, however, we all just have to take certain precautionary measures to protect ourselves from suspected cell phone dangers

1. Keep your cell phone away from your body.
2. Text more, talk less.
3. Use headset or speakerphone function.
4. Use your land line.
5. Turn off your cell phone while charging.
6. Purchase or use phones that have been certified or tested to emit the least amount of radiation.
7. Keep cellular phones away from children.
