I have the older 867 Mhz model and I hade the same worries about heat. It was alarming at first. My friends that want to log on to their mail accounts with my laptop get scared and think they're touching a stovetop.
I guess people get scared and think they will burn themselves. I tell them to relax. After a short period, I have become acclimated to the heat so it doesn't even bother my palms anymore. I remember some company made some kind of gel wrist pad to place on the palm rest. I can't remember the name or the URL. I would recommend a CoolPad to place under the laptop to help airflow. I didn't like the heat on my lap unless it's in the cold winter nights.
