Well considering that they all come from NOKIA, it should only make sense that they should not be breaking NOKIA devices. Not to mention that a phone using a USB standard should not become irreparable due to chargers using the same standard. I have seen devices a tenth of the cost of this with a better USB port.

Obviously this is a problem not isolated to the pre-retail N900.

A Quick Update: I just sent my broken N900 to the Nokia Repair Center in Alabama (why so far away?), so wish me luck...
