Innovation Gameboy Advance TV Converter Question
I picked up Innovation's Gameboy Advance TV Connector today and I was wondering if anyone else has one of these. While I am impressed with the S-Video image quality (using the yellow RCA connection produces a grainy image), I am concerned about the unit feeling warm after only a half an hour of use. Is this normal or should I have it replaced?
(This is a real device, not an April Fool's joke. I picked mine up at Virgin Megastore. The device can also be found here.)

It looks like the same one from Hong Kong called the TV de Advance. If it is then yes I have the same problems with both the adapter and AC cord getting very hot. What I usually do is take a break after a half an hour and play again after it cools down just to make sure it doesn't burn out(I'd hate to have to pay for another one). My friend has the same problem.

It was $79.99. Luckily I had one of the $25 off $100 Virgin Megastore coupons that they gave out last Christmas. (I filled the order out with some accessories.)
I pointed out where I bought it because Virgin was the first B&M store that I saw this at.
