It took a LOT of willpower for me not to crack open my broken N900 but one thing I didn't try was thumping (within reason) on it to see if the mic might work. (I don't recommend this.) It seems very likely from the above video that the mic could be slight misaligned and cause the issue.

Anyone have any detailed pics of the inside of an N900 yet?
