OK, so I am developing a multiboot loader for N9 and currently I have some problems with kexec to 2nd-stage Harmattan OS.

What I really need now is a serial console on the device, but I would hate to drill holes in the chassis of my main device for this purpose

I would like to buy such a broken device, that for example has for example a broken screen or whatever that makes it unusable as a normal phone but that would still be able to boot up and be flashed.

What I aim to do is to wire up the serial console pads from the device to external leads that I can debug the boot messages from.
