Well i took my N900 to my local nokia repair center, they inspected it there and then and found the usb is at fault but the good news is the pads haven't ripped away from the board the bad news is that it needs to be sent away for some special solder work. so i took it back with me to make sure i back up all my details and delete all private info then i will drop it off on Tuesday 21st.

They said once i drop it off it should be away for about 7-10 days (i expect about 3 weeks).

This means i will have to go back to my n96 which isn't all that bad bud i have a habit of pressing the screen. Doh !!

I will keep you posted on the outcome.
