This wa you can easily see if its too hot and going to burn through your juice
Yes, but in these examples, they didn't refer to the CPU temperature, but always to battery temperature, this is the only value you can get on your N900. Which is very inaccurate when you want CPU temp.

See this thread, where this is very clearly stated:

Mainly its due to that the n900 doesn't have a sensor for the processor itself but the battery.
