    Depends on the tablet, overheating is a prob with some. I run an ASUS eee pad with a shock proof cover on it on my dash, exposed to the sun, never had a problem. I just did a 4 day trip with it on the dash the whole time, not a hiccup.

    Ipad has a heat sensor inside.
    If it gets too hot, it will switch off to save cooking
    Made the mistake to left the ipad over the hot water system couple of times while washing the boat.
