I had the same message on ground a few times on hot days (closed canopy, no cover), but never during a flight. My guess is: the Streak is just clever enough to detect this situation and attempts to protect the battery. iPaqs just don't have a temperature sensor and thus you'll never get such a warning from them. That's not a sign of robustness, but blindness.
