It's a good idea to let the engine run long enough to get the bearing journals, rings, etc. lubed, but running it until it gets to full operating temp is a waste of time and energy not to speak of the $ than are going up in smoke. If the manufacturers thought it was necessary to get the engine up to full operating temp, they'd have a built in light to indicate when it was ok to move the thing.
