That sounds about right. You are using GPS, data, and Nav all of those load the battery pretty good. you might want to get a car charger next time. The warm battery while charging is normal too just so long as it doesn't stay warm all the time.

It might be a good idea to call Google tech support then.

Is there a car-dock with fans to cool it? I'd imagine if it gets too hot some internal soldering might disconnect, a la the 360s' heat-sinks.
