i sleep with mine under my pillow because it's my alarm.  i don't think that an iphone is very dangerous judging by the fact that it barely ever has any signal available on it anyway lol. :P

I sleep with my mobile next to me and I glow a healthy green at night. But seriously I doubt that there are any effects from sleeping with your phone near you.

i always wanted a sister :P

NO YOU DO NOT!

I have two twin sisters and they are constantly fighting and I must get into a one sided argument (that they win) about anything. If the loungeroom TV is too loud for them, they will turn it down, if they want to use my laptop for the Internet right now, they will. How is this, they wouldn't just stay quiet for my year 12 exam period so I would have to study and put up with them fighting.

I think perhaps placing any electronic device in your bedroom is bad. There was this hype on A Current Affairs about placing a television in your bedroom, or even a fridge, as some people do. There was also some news story about a truck driver getting cancer near his ear and blaming it on mobile phones.

Idk about sleeping but I once watched this thing on 60 minutes talking about how there's been a huge increase in people getting brain tumours now that mobile phones are more widely used and to avoid/decrease the chance of a brain tumour developing, you should always put your phone on loudspeaker or something.

But it's "A Current Affairs"...  Can you even trust some of the "research" that they do?

I used to sleep with my mobile next to me. For some reason, it affected my sleep.
Recently, I have placed my phone on the table near my bed (so the phone is about 1 meter away from my bed). I have been able to sleep ok :)
