I've been thinking of getting a Motorola Pebl, but I've heard mixed stories about its ability to demagnetize things, like credit cards and harddrives(?). But others say it's just a myth, and that it only takes a super strong magnet to do that.
Anyone have experience with that, or Pebls in general?

as far as I know, the only "things" that can be demagnetized by cell phones are the little key cards when you stay at a hotel, so I think you're safe.
