When on desktop, slide out keyboard and start typing brings up contacts and will search whatever you type in.

So if a firmware update has failed and your battery is flat, you can't switch the phone on to reflash it?

Yes

Besides which, the box that your N900 comes in includes an external charger, yes?

The charger delivered with device charges the battery internally in the device, if the device is not bricked.

No apologies needed. This is an interesting miscommunication.

The N900 uses the cpu to manage charging. If you have trashed your filesystem or otherwise bricked your device so that it can not boot, it will not charge from usb or wall-charger. This is behavior i haven't seen before in devices, so i thought it was worth mentioning.

PC Suite 7.1.40.1 just installed without a hitch on 7 32bit. Others are using it as well. I would install as administrator. Not sure what your Boggle is?

you can download the official maps for your country here and copy over the cities folder onto the N900.
