    Hey Guys,

    Have been using my new 3gs for a day now and I have noticed some serious heat issues. While using the device it heats up alot, definaey on the regions of overheating.

    Anyone been having similar experiences ? Could my device be faulty ? Still getting used to the keyboard :p

    Barry.

    Only time I've noticed mine get warm is after a stint of using navigon. I'd assume navigon is graphics and processor intensive. Other than that, no heat issues here.

    Is there a particlar app that causes it??

    I only get heat if I'm using the internet a lot. I wouldn't call it overheating though. More warm that uncomfortably hot.

    No mine got uncomfortably hot. Today though it seems to be fine, it gets warm a bit but nothing like it was yesterday. Maybe its just because its new and a new battery, We'll see how it runs over the next few days.

    Mine does heat up. But my old E51 got hot as well when I talked on it for awhile.
