I am just curious because i am debating on switching over to the droid2... I wanted to know if anyone is noticing it gets really hot like the droid1 would... Thanks!

Mine and my Wifes Droid 2 gets hot while using.

that sucks... do you guys do heavy usage?

Mine gets warm, but my D1 used to be much worse

Yes we use ours alot we kill the battery in about 1 1/2hrs or so. Battery sucks!!!

ok, I just now my D1 gets retarded hot... to the point where it can be quite bothersome and sometimes (usually daily it freezes and reboots)

Do you have insurance? return it and get the droid 2. My brothers droid 1 broke and they gave him a droid 2 in return.

Average use here, it gets warm and sometimes down-right hot like d1 but i haven't experienced any lockups or anything as of yet.

Actually, my D2 arrives tomorrow... I was gonna play with them a little, i just wasn't sure if I want the D2 over the D1...

My D2 only really gets hot when navigating in the windshield cradle and plugged into the charger. Of course I'm not sure how much is due to the sun shining on it.

same here. it's not just the sun, either. Same thing happens at night. Turning on the GPS radio and having it continously downloading navigation/mapping data via G3 network really heats it up, to the point where the battery can stop charging, and it acts all weird if you cycle the power while the droid2 is in the car dock. Only fix is to pull the battery for a while, even a shft-alt-del won't workshop.

Anyother problems you've noticed? I guess general over heating and rebooting were the biggest concerns, has anyone had issues with it freezing and rebooting/having to reboot?

Got my droid2 today... its tough getting used to it, but I see over time... its pretty nice lookin...

only time ive noticed it being hot is tethering which is normal.

i havent had the phone randomly reboot on me yet and ive had it for about 2 weeks now. It froze one time and i had to do a battery pull but it was when i was playing that new game Angry Birds Beta and someone called me. Phone wouldn't let me answer the call and after it stopped ringing the phone just froze but i believe that to be a problem of the game cause its in beta and ive never had that happen any other time

Mine heated up last night when I was playing Home Run Battle 3D. It actually felt like it was overclocking. But I didn't even look at the CPU temperature because I know that these things can get hot when in use and they can take quite a bit of heat.
