I have a semi bizarre problem. My N900 ran out of juice as I was turning it on. Now it is stuck in a power up cycle, when I try to charge it, the phone tries to turn on, runs out of power and reboots. Ad infinitum ~ The answer is simple, pop in another charged battery, let it boot up, then shut it down and everything should be ok.

But there's no one that i know with an N900 nearby I ordered an external charger, but looks like it won't make it here before I fly out for my vacation on Tuesday

Soooo... Is there anyone near Hawkesbury, Ontario Canada that i can borrow their battery for about 90 seconds? I can come to you or we can meet at a neutral location ~
