 Here is How Two Russian Journalists Cooked an Egg with their Cell Phones!!!
 
 
 
Andrei Moiseynko and Vladimir Lagovski  from Komsomolskaya Pravda Newspaper in Moscow decided to learn first-hand how harmful mobile phones are.There is no magic in cooking with your cell phone.Secret is in the radio waves that the cell phone radiates.

 

 

 
The journalists created a simple microwave structure as shown in the picture. They called from one cell phone to the other and left both phones on talking mode. They placed a tape recorder next to phones to imitate sounds of speaking so the phones would stay on.

 

 

 

After, 15 minutes: The egg became slightly warm.

25 minutes: The egg became very warm.

40 minutes: The egg became very hot.

65 minutes: The egg was cooked. (As you can see.)

 

Conclusion 1: Cooking eggs with mobile phones is possible but very expensive.

Conclusion 2: All this talk of danger is exaggerated; even if your brain gets cooked, it would take a couple hours of talking on a cell phone.

Conclusion 3: We dont recommend carrying cell phone in your pants!

For arguments sake...
this should dispel any arguments. A microwave oven operates at 2450 MHZ. There are some commercial units that can operate at915 MHZ. It is well documented that microwave ovens can interfere with wireless LAN units that operate at 2.8 GHZ, which is approx 2800 MHZ. A cell phone can operate over a band between 1850-1990 MHZ. A PCS phone operates between 827-894 MHZ. Water does not have a specific resonant frequency that will cause it to heat. Microwave ovens use the frequency they do simply because that bandwidth had not already been allocated by the FCC. Any microwave frequency will cause water to heat. It is most certainly possible to cook an egg using cell phone microwaves.

Perhaps the frequency is right, even though it is at least 500MHz off of what a microwave oven uses. However, it is certainly watts that cause the cooking to take place. Most current digital cell phones use less than 1 watt of power; older analog phones, up to 3.6W, and GSM phones around 2W. An egg is going to absorb more heat power just by holding it in your hand! Read http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phone_radiation_and_health for more info. 
 
All the studies are either ambiguous, or indicate that cell phones don't cause damage (the ones that do indicate damage haven't been confirmed). If you don't want a risk, get a phone with Bluetooth, and a BT earpiece. Then the phone won't be near your head.

Duh!
While it is said possible to cook an egg with the cell phone radiation, I think it more likely that the reason the egg was heated is because of the batteries of the two phones. Anyone who has talked on their phone for more than 10 minutes has probably noticed a substantial differential in temperature due to the transmitting and receiving from the tower. Remember that even though the phones are "talking" to each other, they are actually not, they are "talking" through a middle man AKA the cell tower. Being that there is no direct communication between the phones, like with a cordless handset and the base, as in a landline phone, there are no waves transmitted directly from each phone to the other. 
The antenna of the phone is where all of the radiation is going to be centralized, and most antennas are either on the side, or on the top, so if an egg was going to be cooked, you'd have a much better chance of doing so by holding your phone next to the tower with the egg in the middle.  
Final Word 
It is the battery, if anything that is cooking the egg, there have been a great many batteries that have exploded due to electro-thermal anomalies so that isn't soo far fetched. I know that when I have the wireless lan on and in use on my phone, sometimes, it gets extremely hot to the touch, and when I use my phone to talk on for extended periods of time, then it gets hot also.
