Cell Phone Causes Cancer Lawsuit
Convinced that a nine-year cell phone habit led to his brain cancer, neurologist Chris Newman, M.D., has filed an $800 million lawsuit in Baltimore against his cell phone's maker and several other telecommunications companies. In Newman's case, his lawyer has said, "it's really not a question at all" whether the cancer is cell phone-related. The evidence, she says: Newman's own doctors made the connection between his long-time cell phone use and his tumor, which is positioned in "the exact anatomical location where the radiation from the cell phone emitted into his skull."
"We don't see a risk looking at currently available data," says David Feigal, M.D., director of FDA's Center for Devices and Radiological Health. "But we need more definite answers about the biological effects of cell phone radiation, and about the more complicated question of whether mobile phones might cause even a small increase in the risk of developing cancer."

As far as I am concerned, when i make a cell phone call, i can physically feel a throbbing and buzzing in my temple. For that matter, any buzzing, audible or not, polutes the air we live in.

I don't think it is valid enough to file a lawsuit. This will take a lot of discussions to prove that cellphone caused him cancer.
