Yeah, the battery status is really bad at the low end. Don't trust it. As far as running super hot, it does that, too, though people have been reporting that it's doing better lately. Sometimes things get running that shouldn't, and that causes the heat to start pouring out. Wifi or bluetooth stuck on, network trying and failing to connect constantly, etc.

You can play with turning off sync, turning off the radio entirely, turning off wifi, to try to track down the source of the heat.
