iPad too hot to handle for some

The iPod is a hot commodity, literally. Some users are reporting that their iPads are overheating. PC Magazine editor Zach Honig claimed that his iPad gave a warning message when left in spring sunlight. He says he had to put it in a fridge to cool it back down and get it working again. The unit’s compressed case can’t dissipate heat effectively enough in certain conditions.

Other users are reporting that the iPad’s wifi is also buggy. People are complaining that the iPad won’t connect to wifi networks, or won’t reconnect to known networks. Apple claims the problem is with certain third-party routers and not the device itself. If you get a weak signal, Apple suggests moving closer to your router. How silly.
