I just got my icon last week. On my way to run errands, it was fully charged, as I get to where I'm going I check the phone and it was at 70% and hotter than a hooker in church. I turned my wifi off and had not a lot if apps running in the background.

Charging, playing a game, searching for a signal, they get warm.

Unless it becomes painful to touch, it's still in the realm of normalcy.

Mine does this all the time. Just running KIK while on charge causes the top right corner to get very hot.

Is it unprovoked? (heavy browsing, gaming can cause heat)
A soft reset is likely in order, but if its painful, getting in touch with support might be best

If you get constant overheating you might need Nokia Care intervention. Occasional heating is pretty common.
