Uh, do you guys not realize giving your IMEI and hence serial number allows crooks to clone your devices? I advise you remove them for your protection.

how is that possible cloning a device? to make it look like the actually thing ? cosmetic is not the software I guess. And I think Maemo5 is open therefore it would be easier to clone I guess.:confused:

Cloning the handset is not the same as cloning the SIM card from what i understand...
an IMEI is more like a MAC address i think.

IMEI is a sensitve piece of information. Take heed and realize this is a freely travelled site. Anyone with malicious intent could come and steal from you, but only if you help them.

I'd like to hold on to the one I've got, live with the hassle of having to use a headset for phone calls, and hope to get this one repaired under warranty once the current n900 fever dies down. The whole situation feels like it's going to be a gamble on my part either path I take.

Now that we are past the holidays, Amazon is suddenly being more cooperative. There are going to send me a replacement after all. Here's hoping the microphone in the new one works.
