Sorry, that is why I posted the other link so the photos would be available. The FCC has them on file but they are just harder to get to. Hope this helps.
Take care.

n900 - USB port falls out (Who says Nokia products are "Better Quality"?)


See what I did here.


So does using the bumper make things better?
I don't hold my N900s in "standard" ways, I guess. So all kinds of weird things happen -- I go into portrait mode when I'm holding the phone in landscape fashion. My fingers cover the gps antenna. Windows open when I'm not expecting them. When I'm typing my cursor jumps to funny places so I have to move to the right place again. Sometimes when I'm typing, messages close and I lose them.

But I take all this stuff for granted and don't bother mentioning it.

Should we have a long thread about different ways you can hold the N900 and the problems they can cause?

I really shouldn't do this...
Did you mean FACE DOWN? :eek:
I believe the FCC test modes for handheld devices is:
Left hand, left ear, right hand, right ear - face up and face down
Read you all tomorrow.
Take care.

Same for external antennas. I could have told Apple that. Anyone know what happens when you touch external, bare metal FM receiver antennae? ;)
It's obvious that Nokia and Apple should both be competing to hire you. ;)

As far as manufacturing issues, they weren't Nokia's. It's obvious the PCB supplier provided an inferior product for the motherboard. Copper plating should not remove so easily; looks like a bonding problem.
Absolutely.. It should have had been a screwed in connector. IMHo the pcb on the phone is too thin to sustain a thru hole connector.
