MacRumors is reporting via Bloomberg that Apple has been hit with yet another lawsuit, this time over issues relating to the company’s new tablet computer, the iPad, and it sporadically overheating.

Bloomberg reports:

The complaint, filed July 23 in federal court in Oakland, California, seeks unspecified damages and class action, or group, status. It claims the iPad “does not live up to the reasonable consumer’s expectations created by Apple” because it “overheats so quickly under common weather conditions.”

The iPad has a 9.7-inch touch-screen display that lets users read books and magazines, view videos, play games and surf the Internet. In direct sunlight, the tablet “turns off, sometimes after just a few minutes of use,” according to the complaint.

… And its not just the iPad which suffers from these issues either. As we reported at the end of June, some users were also experiencing the exact same overheating issues with their brand new iPhone 4.

As noted by MacRumors, Apple has created a support document detailing the process of its devices (including iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 and iPad) overheating.
