Just to add my feedback that I have experienced the same problems. I have over 30 apps installed, and I have to reboot every day. I have also seen the issue where the phone has become so hot that it seems to be overheating.
I am guessing that bad programming on one or more of my apps is the culprit, but Android does not have a built-in task manager, and it does not allow the user to end specific tasks. There is a "NetMeter" app on the Market, but it isn't helpful other than showing current CPU load (it doesn't tell you what apps are running). I just turned on my phone from sleep after getting to work today, and the CPU load is 42.6%--with no app running other than NetMeter. After reboot, this number drops to 4%.
