I asked my girlfriend if she noticed that the back of ipad was getting hot. She was playing with it for an hour when I asked. She started feeling the back and then just shook her head no. And she doesn't even have a case yet.

An influential U.S. consumer watchdog is investigating online reports that Apple Inc's new iPad throws off an unusually large amount of heat and will publish its findings later on Tuesday.

Tell 'em to get a life.

I just used the new iPad for a long FaceTime call. PROBABLY 45 minutes. FaceTime pushes both the CPU and GPU pretty hard. My MacBook Pro gets quite hot during FaceTime calls.

Well, the iPad didn't get more than slightly warm. That's my experience.

I think this is another of those really small things that get magnified by the big lens the media holds up to any new Apple product. Like most of those issues, I dont think it will turn out to be a big deal.
