This is just a thought and I have not done careful testing.

...and an idea based on some logic. The harder a processor works the more heat it generates.

This is one of the higher mhz devices on the market in one of the smallest packages and its running a phone radio, bluetooth radio, wifi radio, and GPS, not to mention a ton of other functions and processes that are running as well. I'm not surprised it puts out some heat. Pure physics says it has to.
