I just started using my airport express and I noticed it gets pretty hot. Maybe it cools down when I'm not using it, but since it's always plugged in, I was wondering if it stays this hot.

Does everyone's airport express seem to run hot? Are you not suppossed to use it all the time like the base station?

I was planning on using it 24/7 to surf the internet wirelessly, but I don't want it to get so hot it causes a fire. Unplugging it all the time seems like a chore (one that I won't remember).

Is this a problem or nothing to worry about?

thanks.
