Your iPad has built in circuitry to warn you if it is getting too hot. Using the iPad, especially when doing graphic intensive activities, such as streaming video, playing games, etc., it will heat up where the battery is. It is normal to get warm. It is not normal to become too hot to hold. If you feel the iPad is too warm to hold, you should stop using it and it would be advisable to schedule an appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar of Apple Authorized Service Provider for evaluation.
