Default iPhone Catches Fire on Flight

http://www.appletell.com/technology...etell+Appletell

"On November 25th, a Regional Express flight from Lismore to Sydney in Australia had an unusual occurrence after landing when a passenger's iPhone started emitting a significant amount of dense smoke and glowing red."

This certainly is scary! Hopefully just an isolated incident thankfully, but I certainly wouldn't like to see this happening, especially on a flight! I'm curious as to what temperature it did reach since it really did a number on this iPhone.

UPDATE: Apparently this isn't an isolated as another report in from Brazil on the same issue.
