iStat Pro is reporting my Airport card is at 146F (63C).

Everything else is around 120-130F. Should I be concerned?

The fans are at:
CPU - 1200
HDD - 1243
Optical - 999

This is while running only Adium, iTunes, and Safari.
 
I don't have a iMac but I do have a macbook..... my airport card gets in that range when in heavy wireless use, 140-150F. So I don't think thats too abnormal...... assuming your actually using your wireless at this time.

Yeah, I'm using wireless.

So it appears that this is normal, then. Thanks!
 
I just called applecare about my new macbook, and they said normal operating temperatures for my airport card are 50-70 degrees Celsius.
