Should I be worried about my phone's temperature?

I have noticed that my Epic gets pretty warm when on the internet for long periods and also when I am wifi tethering. Is this normal? Should I be worried about overheating?

It will get warm doing both of those, especially tethering. The phone has a built in safety to help stop overheating but its always better to side on the side of caution. I dont know what kind of temperature your seeing but there is a pretty good thread here about just that. Just do a search and you should be able to find it. Hope that helps
