I have never used a 11" Air, but they get quite warm; don't they?

In contrast, the iPad 2 has never in my experience got even noticeably warmer than its surroundings, and I tend to believe that the Transformer line will also have that (very welcome, IMO) property.

If you're playing an FPS or running a coupla VMs, it gets warm, but not too warm to sit on your leg.

Only Flash and StarCraft II heat up my Air, otherwise the fan stays off and it's completely cool and quiet.
