[TrunkCom] 250 heat issue

[JEFFREY MICHAEL KENYON]

Well, for some good news for everyohne, it is just with some units.  Last
night I charged the unit when I went to bed, and when I woke up this
morning it wasn't any warmer then it was when I put it on the charger.  As
Tom said though if you turn it on while it is charging it will get warm
then, and I had it on the charger a good eight hours.
