Sometime back, my laptop was getting heated up as well. I bought a targus
stand  http://www.targus.com/US/product_details.asp?sku=AWE09US to raise
the base of the laptop, improve the heat transfer. The stand is compact,
portable and foldable.

Using the stand at the bottom, a box fan at the back solved my heating
problems.

  Thermal zone 1 : ok, 45 C
  Trip points :
  -------------
  critical (S5):           126 C


I am in no way associated with Targus and I heartily recommend this option.
