Not normal the part of the phone getting warmer. While on road signal going from 3.5g to 2g no connection like every 10 minutes and I haven`t witnessed the battery getting worm.

You hadn't by any chance recently loaded a pile of new music/video onto the phone had you? This happened to me the other morning, and the culprit was tracker-indexer that had kicked in and was vociferously chomping through everything to extract metadata. A few gigabytes of stuff later and my battery had plummetted by over 50% in less than an hour.
I think it does a periodic refresh too, so you may have been caught by one of those. It's normal, but resource-hungry.

Anyways, I suspect it was because something was pushing up against my phone in the locker, and the screen wasn't locked... maybe...
EDIT: Or very low 3g coverage.

I've had a couple of times battery draining problem with PR1.3. Battery Eye shows that CPU use has gone high right when I unplugged the charger. When I look at Conky it shows that modest is taking all the CPU it can get.
Reboot helps, but I'v experienced this at least 3-4 times with PR1.3 already! What could help?

Predicting the battery consumption when you are changing your location is very hard to do. Two examples:
This weekend, I spent 1.5 hours waiting in a building. I had 3G enabled and was using firefox to surf. Reception was pretty bad, so the phone was pumping at full force to keep the connection. The battery basically melt and went from 92% to 30% in 1.5 hours. The N900 became noticably warm. Mind you, I wasn't stressing the cpu, just the radio.
Another example. I have Alarmed set up so my phone goes offline at night. If I don't have any background-active applications running, it takes about 3-4 hours to reduce the battery by 1%. If I just left the phone like this, it would take more than 11 days (!) to deplete the battery. Not switched off, but fully running.
Battery usage depends heavily on your usage patterns and on signal reception.
