Sratch Last Post, This One GPRS> GPRS Creepers Scientist says GPRS phones could put a kick into your day Mobile phone vendors say that the only thing stopping them marketing General Packet Radio Service (GPRS) terminals is interoperability testing. Some scientists might argue the point, though. Dr Alan Preece of Bristol University, earlier this year, discovered that radiation from present-day GSM phones might interfere with some physical functions of the human body. Preece found that the phones boost reaction times by 4%. Preece now calculates that full-rate GPRS terminals will breach current health standards. "The different guidelines will be easily exceeded," he said, referring to limits on microwave exposure set by the World Health Organisation (WHO), the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the International Commission for Non-Ionising Radiation Protection (ICNIRP).
