  They do run reasonably warm, yes. I've not heard or read about any overheating, though.
  
  I have mine in a silicone case so I rarely notice the heat anymore but I remember I used to be quite surprised by it.

  i have read about overheating for car chargers etc!
  
  But, yeah i was shocked about it tooo, as long as i dont feel it when i get my case, and it doesnt start resetting like some peoples!

  Car chargers might not be a Desire problem though - you need to use "intelligent" chargers with the Desire (and probably any device with a Li-Ion battery), that switch to a kind of trickle charge when the battery is full. If it's not "intelligent", it will presumably keep pumping out full charge which I imagine will cause overheating.
  
  Like I said, mine gets hot but it's never rebooted through heat, and I've played games and used Google Navigation (both of which are processor-intensive) whilst it's been plugged in - you should be absolutely fine.

  Mine would get warm under 3g use for browsing but since the 2.2 update it's been much much cooler.
