Hi,
most imprtant thing to do is update firmware when your Raspi arrives.
Mine was delivered 1 month ago and came with old firmware. Temperature
whilst idle was 74ºC (at 80ºC CPU starts throttling down).
After updating firmware temperature dropped to 62-64ºC in idle state.

I didn't particularly want a case with a fan, but this is just a stop

Noise-wise I'd say it's whisper quiet,

The only drawback at the moment is the heat. Static pi runs at 60C or so
and this increases with work load.
