I have realized a curious byproduct of my 3G USB Modem- heat!
When I plug it in, my video card shoots up about 3-4C and my CPU goes up 6-7C or so.
Is this normal? Is there anything I could do to stop this from happening?
Thanks!
Oh by the way, it's a Huawei built modem packaged by Vodafone.

does it do the same when you plug other devices into that USB port?

Nope. I have my keyboard and ipod connected to it. My mouse is running off a USB port on the keyboard....
I tried plugging it into different USB ports, made no difference....
