[P1] Has anyone experienced excess fan use after updating to 10.3.2 or Battery update 1.1 ?

Absolutely! My fan runs continuously. Had the good old display failure
(2002/800/Combo) accompanied by a cheerful AppleCare "logic board
replacement".
Fan runs all the time. iBook much cooler. Unfortunately, I had done
lots of other stuff like wipe and clean install Panther before I
noticed continuous fan. Never thought about the service proximity being
coincidental with the fan running....
I also have a voltage leak which is easily felt by sensitive skin.
And surprisingly, the battery life seems OK, but I'll bet it would be
better without the fan and stray voltage.
