If you have access to an infrared thermometer, you may try taking the temperature of your eDGe to see how hot is hot and give a feedback to the TS people. Unfortunately, my eDGe is still with the RMA people so I can't try this out myself. But I'm quite sure it did not get hot enough to melt the glue off the rubber strip.

If your highest ever recorded is 92F, then it should be well within tolerable range for most chassis of computers and electronic devices. Certain laptops can get up to 110F occassionally on parts of exterior. If the eDGe uses the normal types of material used on most industrial designs on most computers, then it shouldn't be the cause of these rubber parts. A lot of computers I have seen though do have a tendency to have rubber parts attached on the surface fall off, due to repeated or prolonged mechanical stress. It seems that most long time EE owners have not observed this, is there any way that you might hold, use, or transport the edge in a different way than the average person?
