No, this is normal, particularly if you are watching video or playing intensive games for a period. The back of the iPad acts as a heat sink, so it will get warm when performing these high demand activities. It should never be too hot to hold, but a full case will mean it gets warmer than if it wasn't covered.
My iPad 2 is on from 8am to 12 midnight every day. Never have problem with heat for the last 18 months.
Mine too. But spend an hour playing Galaxy On Fire, and it soon warms up.
If it's over-heating, a temperature warning will pop up.
