That may well be different from simply being exposed to radiation in the air. I don't know about the Italian study and reduced sperm count, but cell phones do transmit microwave radiation, and some studies have suggested a link between heavy cell-phone use and certain types of cancers. The jury is still out, but the evidence certainly warrants further investigation. In the meantime, those who are concerned may want to consider using a headset so that the phone isn't in direct proximity to the skull.
