Electronic devices
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF energy.
However, certain electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals from your Pocket PC phone.
Pacemakers
To avoid potential interference, the Health Industry Manufacturers’ Association recommends that a minimum

These recommendations are consistent with the independent research by and recommendations of Wireless
