But a cure for cancer with no magnets involved is not a cure for cancer.

Definitely sounds interesting, but you've gotta wonder: if the ultrasound is powerful enough to rupture the micro bubbles, what's the chance of it rupturing something else inside your body...?]]>Oct 6th 2008 5:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/Oct 6th 2008 5:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/
I think the Philips site said the ultrasound gets about 10cm into your body: that's deep enough to reach your vital organs. It *should* be fine, but that said it wouldn't be the first thing to hit the pre-clinicals and fall flat on its face.

Here's hoping it doesn't.]]>Oct 6th 2008 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/
If you are a lucky enough that you can stand the treatments, then you become a success.]]>Oct 6th 2008 6:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/
They can also (somewhat) control how deep the ultrasound goes. And when it's your "vital organs" that have the cancer, you'll be happy this can reach them without requiring the surgeon's knife.]]>Oct 6th 2008 7:50PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/Oct 6th 2008 5:41PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/Oct 7th 2008 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/Oct 6th 2008 5:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/Oct 6th 2008 5:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/06/philips-aims-to-reduce-cancer-treatment-side-effects-with-drug-l/

It seems that the phone doesn't actually "save" the password. And when you get out of the settings menu, it just goes back to "Required", when instead, it should have the dots.
