Mine does not, although it is *extremely* hot and produces some chirping noise (almost inaudible from 1 meter away).

Mine runs warm, too, but not so warm as to deform it. Do you keep it in a well ventilated location? I wedge mine between a cabinet and the wall so the sides of the Dialog touch the cabinet and wall and the bottom and top are open to the air. Maybe unnecessary, but I'm paranoid about overheating. On my second Dialog, the first having to be exchanged because it stopped working. I'm no engineer, but it seems a small fan would have been a good idea.

Mine is getting pretty warm but not hot. It is fixed the slim side down. So it can get air from both sides.

Has anyone tried one of those USB desktop fans, would this run off the USB port on the Dialog (they only need power from USB port)? Might offend fan-less sensibilities but they can be very quiet and will just move air across the casing. Cheap as well, I have a 'Daffodil' which is whisper quiet and has a speed dial on the top. I don't own a Dialog but thought this might help, or be worth trying.
