And as far as 'tethering' goes, try telling the business clients leaving their phone docked via Activesync that its not designed for long term 'tethering'. Regardless of how you look at it, sync'ing is a form of tethering too and I am sure people will soon see that their device doesnt last through the day even while plugged in.

My Mogul would over heat after an hour or so of tethering with active use. If your data is idle, I don't see why tethering would generate any extra heat... I have an open data connection almost 24/7 thats mostly idle with no ill consequences.
Syncing isn't anything close to tethering. Tethering requires use of the radio and such, syncing doens't cause overheating because it doesn't really do anything.
