Heating issues?

I have a 2nd MBA and it overheats when I stream flash videos online. How does the new MBA hold up when streaming media like on Hulu? I love my MBA and would consider upgrading, but given that there is no backlit keyboard; a similar heating issue with the upgrade would deter me upgrading.

The new ones are much better. My 11" Air is actually a little cooler than my 2010 13" MBP.

Does it stream videos without lag? Thanks for your response by the way.

What kind of videos? I have no problems streaming hours of Hulu to my new 13" MBA ... with it laying on my chest, while I'm in bed. It doesn't get hot, and it doesn't skip.
