Would wired ethernet tablet safer than laptop & PC?

muii20
Dear Angels

what are your thought of wired ethernet tablet ( with wifi turn-off) ? Since it use rechargeable battery & tablet is small screen; would they emit less emf than laptop & PC

Ever since the 4G phone mast in my street, I start to feel little dizziness when using the pc. I wonder if a 10" tablet is safer?

I have no problem using my kindle keyboard for many hrs.

thanks for any input!

alice

Which model of Kindle are you able to use for many hours?  The only Kindle I ever
tried was unbearable even for a few minutes.  Meanwhile, I can use my computer
for many hours...

With tablets, I just worry that you are in closer proximity to the electronics.  
And the fact that many of them seem to be purely wireless.  Which tablets
have an ethernet connection?  (probably ones that run Microsoft Windows,
I'd guess)

The kindle I have is Kindle 5 keyboard wifi:
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Amazon-Kindle-3-eReader-WiFi-and-Keyboard-Excellent-Condition-/221175565146#vi-content

I only turned on wifi to download files.

I read that if the tablet operating system supports ethernet, then they can be used with adaptor ( but I am not too sure about this) but I read that people use the wired ethernet when the wifi signals are weak on their tablets ( especially some chinese brand names)

There is a latest & fastest quad core tablet just released from China; this brand is one of the popular brand in China, have good recommendations & high branch mark scores & the price is lot cheaper than famous brands

On some sites; the spec says it support driverless ethernet but I can't locate the sites now.

But like you said; I am not sure being close to the electonics; I don't have any meter to measure it when I get one. Since I now become more sensitive to my pc now, I am going to try the tablet & see. This model is selling very fast & out of stock from manufacturer.

here's one site which spec says it supports fast ethernet

Barrie Trower said in one of his interviews mentioning smart phones smart devices , will pass electrons to the fingers when we touch them, I think he means those touch screens.

So even wired ethernet tablets are not good alternative to laptop & PC!

the same happens when you touch any electrical item I would guess, but  
putting your hand on a mouse and the other on the keyboard you are definitely  
making a circuit with the pc and hence the national grid if its on mains  
!!!!!!!

you mean even the keyboard & mouse is plastic? in what way we make the circuit? please clarify

I am thinking if we  wear insulating gloves or any insulating means, & we use a stylus pen to use on the wired tablet; it may stop fingers getting electrons, but then again may still the issue of emf coming from the tablet electronics.

Hi Paul,

At least the mouse and keyboard are covered with a plastic shell, that
keeps fingertips out of contact with the actual circuits inside.

As a general rule, I would expect touch screens to be higher in EMR,
more electrically active with the extra layers, than an ordinary LCD
screen. In addition to the closer proximity to the electronics, and the
WiFi, and the cellular exposure.
I think tablets should be avoided.

induction, of low frequency emr which will travel through your body along  
nerves etc, miniscule power levels but the signals are messy/choppy and
negative  to the body no dougbt.
