Had mine for 2 years. The only time it gets warm is if I leave it in the sun. Most reliable computing machine I’ve ever owned. Period
Boy, that is true ... it's truly amazing how how that little puppy will get in the sunshine. But, overall I concur with you 100%. I was one of the 'foolish' ones who pre-ordered the origional iPad at 6am on the first day it came out for pre-ordering. I was also among the first to open the box and begin using it. I never leave home without it. It's my standard accessory that I simply "Must Have" when I travel.
Not saying there’s anything to these reports, but the overheating stories are specific to the new ipad that just came out, not the older models. Could relate to the 4G chip, more powerful GPU, or larger battery.
