I didn't even know that some people had problems with the USB port :|

No problems at all here!

There's no BUT. Go for it, you won't regret.

I was hearing some stories of the micro-USB becoming detached inside the phone.

Ok, thank you for the responses everyone. I will assume that the micro-USB has been fixed on all the N900's now.

Here's a 2nd "BUT"

Nokia is selling the N900 for $580 plus $4-10 shipping.
Amazon and Newegg are selling the N900 for $530 with free shipping.
I bought my N78 1.5 years ago from Amazon, and all my computer parts from Newegg, so I don't have any issue with them. BUT I would much rather buy from Nokia directly and cut out the middleman. If I'm interested in giving more of my money to Nokia, would this be an effective way do it, (disregarding the extra $50 Nokia wants to charge.) ?? Or is there some business structure in place that to prevent any difference in margins?

you would be stupid to buy from nokia if you can get it cheaper from reputable stores like new egg, Amazon, play. The 2 year warranty is with nokia (service centers) no matter where you buy it from....

why ask silly question like "would this be a effective way" its common sense, yes buying from nokia would be giving more money to them....what extra do you get out of? invoice that says nokia?


edit: either i missunderstood what you mean or its the stupidest question i have heard in 2010
