How to find RF energy SAR for your mobile?

I always wondered why the important information of SAR is not given for many handsets and often it is difficult to get from different web sites. It means that you will not generally find the information in the first few visits to the company website. It is tucked deep in to the website, making it difficult to access to common public.I have tried to compile some of the information I could collect so far. Be prepared to get some sweet and shocking surprises about your sixth finger. SAR varies from company to company and model to model. Hence if you are confused between two hand sets to choose, go with the one that is emitting lesser RF energy.

How much RF energy your handset is producing? What is considered a safe level of RF exposure?
All wireless phones sold in the United States meet government requirements that limit their RF energy to safe levels. The relative amount of RF energy absorbed in the head of a wireless telephone-user is given by the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR). The FCC requires wireless phones to have SAR levels no greater than 1.6 watts per kilogram.
