You're probably right, but I'm very curious about technical explanation of that phenomena

//Edit
Ops, missed ndi post. Thank You for explanation, suspected something like that...

@hteink.min
Broken USB connector is design fault, and should be good known to Nokia Care. As someone mentioned, sometime You must talk with someone 4 positions higher than person you started to talk with at the beginning, but they MUST fix it, if You still got warranty.

Ho ever, it's highly possible that they will decide that they're not able to repair it, nor replace with new one, and you will got refund. No big deal, cause You can buy new N900 on aftermarket. Someone mentioned in other topic that she/he got 500 pounds refund.
