Honestly, mine looks just as good. Used but in good condition. Or do you mean the OS? Some "hackers" might be very impressed by conky ;)

edit:
Just to be clear, there's nothing wrong with it - except the price.
"Reserve" means that the seller has a secret setting where the device won't be sold until a certain price is met - and judging from the Buy Now price, the reserve will be much higher than what N900s usually go for nowadays.

Just saw an N950 for $200 on ebay using your link. Has a large dot on the screen. What caused that? Is that fixable?

There is also this one for 30€ with shipping.
Usb broken, charger, nothing else.
So, it is cheap but you have to re-solder the usb.
I think the most part of the time will be spent in re-reading of all the threads about how to fix an usb port, to find the post with the bast advice. ;)
By the way, is there still somebody who has done that here?

I read it was more reliable to scratch the board from enamel around the plug and re-solder it widely to allow better reinforcement than adding glue as glue is too soft and elastic.
I'll give a try these days on an old n900 bard.

Done and working!
I explained how I did here

And by the way, don't throw your n900 with broken USB, fix them or send them to me, I got addicted to save them :)
