I'm having the same problem. Given that there's no other charging point for the phone, I assumed it being plugged in would be fine, as it should be no different to being plugged in at the wall. Anyway my N900 is now BRICKED too. Very NOT HAPPY. Now it just sits there vibrating every 15 seconds, with the NOKIA logo in the background., Thanks a ****ing heap Nokia for making an update that's RUINED my phone. It still escapes me how everyone else seems to be able to make updates that aren't so fragile, except Nokia. If there had been a warning such as "Warning! We don't know what we're doing" then maybe I wouldn't have clicked update. Garbage Also WTF is with it not being able to charge itself? WTF? Get a 5800 to swap batteries with and charge that to continue the update? The ****?
