brumkaJust mentioned the odd behaviour of my mobile (Nokia 6310i) in conjunction with the laptop (DELL latitude):
If the phone is are placed within a distance of 30..50 cm from the laptop's power supply (which is quite usual office situation), 10%-20% of incoming calls are shutting down the power supply. Yes, the green LED turns off and win2k reports it's runnig on batteries. It happens with other DELL laptops of my office colleagues and with some other phones as well (especially if you use GPRS, of course): Nokia 6210, Siemens 45.

Date: 2002-10-30 01:26 am (UTC)electromagnetic radiation can affect the electronic components. Especially, if there are any
logic chips in it.
As for GPRS, - it uses 3+1 channels (there are even 4+1 standard available already), - simply
speaking equally to 4 concurrent sessions, meaning it produces 4 times higher signal (BTW, eating the phone battery 4 times more intensively, of course).
