dbl2010: My assumption is that while humans may tend towards selfishness in at least some ways, at least some portion of the N900 owning demographic would be happy to offer their CPU-dead N900's for spare parts or whatever else to someone else on this site. I know I'd probably still stick around if I fried my N900, and offer it to others if they wanted it for spare parts (though I'd probably buy a second N900, so it's possible I'd keep the one I had for parts... *shrug* depends on how likely I though I'd need any of the spare parts for the second one). But if I didn't plan on buying another one it's all the more likely that I'd offer this one up here, because that's just more in line with my ethics than not doing anything with it or tossing it or whatever.
