The dm1z always stays cool. It's an ice cube compared to other laptops I've used. The bottom of the unit never gets overly warm and the keyboard deck stays cool. I have the default settings for the Performance Optimized Mode in the HP CoolSense fan control program. This bases fan speed on CPU/GPU demand and it "will increase fan speed less often when temperature rises".
HP CoolSense has separate settings for "stationary mode" (for use on a table or desk) and "mobile mode" (use on a sofa, chair or lap). Via an accelerometer the dm1z knows when you're using it on a table or on your lap.
The various sites that have reviewed the dm1z provide specific temperatures and Mobile Tech Review says the CPU and GPU ran at 43 to 50C.
