Exactly same thing happen to mine 2 weeks after purchase. usb charger s a big flaw and very fragile as well as having it on the wrong end of the phone. u must be careful with it in the future. i didnt back my files or anything, so had to start from scratch. my insurance replaced it by sending a new one which took about 2 weeks. a tough 2 weeks i must say.
good luck using ur old phone in the time being

My Usb port on my N900 broke this evening, the charger wire got caught in my foot

I don't know much when it comes to anything techincal, but i was hoping that if i purchased a MicroSD 16GB card and opened the back-up application on my phone, then i would be able to back-up all my files/music/images/applications.

I don't think Nokia customer care are likely to repair the usb port (just a gut feeling) although the part is still attached to the end of my charger

So i was hoping that if they gave me a new N900 (covered in warranty and have insurance with Vodafone) then i could stick my memory card in the phone and run the back-up application to restore the files/music/images/applications etc? Would i be correct in doing this?

Also has anyone accidently broke their usb port and actually got it repaired by Nokia?

Thanks in advance for any advice
