Gaming PSP screen gets hot.

[Rydian]

PSP-2000 (TA-85v2), Prome-2 firmware (Gen-D3 with the Prometheus-V2 upgrade).

So I use GoTube to watch stuff on video sites while I go to sleep because I have trouble falling asleep normally, I pretty much have to bore myself to passing out. Gotube runs at 333mhz, I leave it plugged in (charging) while I use it in bed since the cord's long and I don't like it dying.

I sometimes fall asleep without a chance to turn the PSP off... I'll wake up in the morning and it's fine if it ended up with the screen upwards.
However if it ends up with the screen facing down towards the bed, the PSP is hot when I wake up.
Well, not "hot", but a lot warmer than I've ever had a handheld get (though it still functions fine).

Anybody else notice this?

umm thats because you left it charging and you had it on for some hours :/
Try to remember to turn off your psp.

Leaving it charging and using it for hours doesn't make it heat up nearly that much.

I'm wondering if the 2000 model normally releases heat through the screen like that.
