It might not be convenient, but if you're going to be on a two hour call (or tethering for prolonged periods) then a couple of seconds to think about cooling isn't really that big of a deal.
There might be room for some improvements in the radio, but the bottom line is that these tend to be powerful devices that suck a lot of power and produce a lot of heat. Just look at the SAR ratings of most Pocket PC phones, they're always on the high end.
The Pro might not be the perfect device for everyone, but I think if you recognize that there are certain physical limitations regardless of device or manufacturer, you'll be happy with it in the long run. I love mine.

The Mogul was far less powerful than the Touch, which hardly got warm when I used it for 3 hours conference call. I do not buy the "it's getting hot because it's such a powerful device."
During a call, the CPU is not really doing--anything at all... The data connection is severed. The only things that are really going on are 1X voice, and perhaps BT voice. If this truly affects all Touch Pros, someone over at HTC should start looking for a new job.
