> So a person who lays the iPad2 on their chest while napping, or holds one on their chest while reading, could trigger magnet mode.

I think the point the article is trying to make is that holding an iPad close to your chest is both more likely to happen, and less noticeable than holding a magnet to your chest.



I wonder if those quack 'magnetic wrist {pain reliever,travel/seasickness preventer} bracelet' things are strong enough to affect it?
