No not me. A guy from Macrumors forum has posted his experience with a heated iPhone3G. Here is his Experience:
A few hours ago, I fell asleep on my couch and woke up from extreme pain coming from my pocket… I pulled out my iPhone 3G which was extremely hot… i then placed it on the floor, for whatever reason, my phone burned my leg, and after looking back at my phone, you could definitely see melted plastic… Has this happened to anyone else? What do you think apple will say?

thats why you don’t buy into the stupid consumerism and buy a decent phone, for god’s sake, sue them, get what you can from them because they deserve to have everything they own removed from them for killing the Unix base that they used and running it head long into the ground, now go buy a real phone and probably computer, stop wasting your time and good day to you
OMG! This is dangerous stuff.
This is why you dont spend so much on a phone, get a laptop. If you werent trying to cram everything into your phone then maybe it wouldnt over heat as bad. This is what you get for buying a status symbol.
oh and PS
Stop shaving your leg, or shave again, either way, the stubble is weird
How does the front look like? My iPod touch gets hot… but nowhere near burning hot. Unless you got “lucky” and got the 1 defective from 1,000,000 iphones, there’s just no way I could believe that you got burned by an iphone. Show the front please, and if what you say is true, heat marks should arise from within the iphone, not from external sources.
Wow, Liam, chill out. While I agree with that the iPhone is a complete waste of time and money, the guy can choose to buy whatever he wants. Now, with that being said, my cell phone has gotten pretty hot sometimes too, though not quite hot enough to burn me. But then again, anything technology related has a tendency to heat up when in use.
Ah, the wonders of modern advancements.
you guys are so stupid. anyone can buy whatever he or she wants. and if u believe an iphone can burn u so bad ur just plain stupid.
ppl need to relax. life is beautiful go out and get one
My power cord on my computer does this as well. It can get very hot and leave a red mark on your skin, but that is not an actual burn, my friend.
I suggest you try not to run so many apps on your phone simultaneously.
I don’t have one of these, but I have a Nokia phone from Virgin Mobile that has been getting increasingly hotter and hotter on my ear…I’m using loudspeaker more and more…Uhhhhh!
(Yes, I got this phone WAY before the Virgin Media scandal and am about to get rid of it completely!!!)

@Liam,
well maybe you should also stop jumping on the antibandwagon bandwagon. Those who choose to blindly follow the anti-iPhone hype are guilty of just as bad of group mentality as those who follow the pro-iPhone hype. Seriously, the iPhone may not have lived up to its reputation or expectations, but it still is quite a decent phone. Just because it is not as great as marketing made it out to be doesn’t mean it is a piece of garbage either.
Yes, it is far too expensive for its quality, but if someone can afford it and wants one, then they sure as hell can and should get one. Why make money if you aren’t gonna spend it on what you want? While those who spend recklessly without any forethought are sure to go broke, those who get so wound up in finding the absolute best deals will feel just as broke even with a truckload of money.
oh it seems ur iPhone is hot
but you are not lol
You say you fell asleep with the phone in your pocket. This means you likely rolled over on it at some point. When you did this the heat generated by the phone had no where to go, so it built up until there was enough of it to cause sever heat rash (this is not a full burn). ANY electronic device will heat up to this degree if it is cut off from the air which allows the heat to dissipate.
there is no melted surface on the iphone that i can see? plus the red mark is where your fat stubbily ass has been sat on a brick – its a little red mark not a burn twat. if you had been burnt you would have woken up very quickly
