Techmeme Update: Are Wi-Fi Laptops a Health Risk for Children?

April 30, 2007 by Beth B. Leave a Comment

Yesterday while reading Techmeme, I was suprised to see the BBC UK article about wi-fi being a potential health risk for children using laptops:

"Professor Lawrie Challis told the Daily Telegraph children using wi-fi networks should be monitored until research into potential health risks is completed. He says children should keep a safe distance from the embedded antennas."

All I know is that for now, I will take away my sons laptop desk and ask him to use his laptop on a real desk until I can look into this further. Sitting in bed using his laptop on the laptop desk is probably not good ergonomics anyway….
