Got a update on the status of my phone

Current Status Repair in Progress
10/27/10 Shipped Repaired Original Phone
10/26/10 Received
10/21/10 Pending Receipt by the Repair Center

I sent an email to Nokia requesting what was repaired, did the resolder the microusb? Was there another issue? I don't want to have to send it in again.
Was hoping for a new N900, but if they fixed the problem with the weak microusb, then I can't complain.

Nokia has email me stating "In response to your concern about the repair of your Nokia N900, we would like to inform you that our repair center replaced the charging port of your device to resolve the issue that you have encountered. In line with this matter, we would also like to inform you that there is no need for you to worry that the same issue will occur again."
I received my repaired phone on friday, quick turnaround by Nokia, and everything is working fine. They replaced the charging port or w/e, but now I can use other charges as well. A 3rd party usb-microusb pc connector works fine, which didn't work before. Seems the microusb is a different one then before, the color is different and looks/feels more snug. I did go ahead and filed down all the prongs on my charges so there is no friction on the device.
Ty Nokia.
