That's a very interesting idea. I love it. Not sure Nokia would be able to bring anything, but I'm sure we could maybe have a volunteer that could help you at some point.
Anyone interested?

Unfortunately the "Maemo on Beagleboard" project is basically dead. Otherwise i'd love to contribute to a maemo hardware hacking workshop. But "just" repairing devices doesn't sound too exciting.

This thread probably fits better in Community.
For what I know, Nokia will send many different profiles to the Summit but none of them actually skilled disassembling devices. Such task, and such tools, belong to the Nokia Care points and the repair experts sitting somewhere in the World.
In a similar way, we don't work in places with plenty of accessories around. I will ask around about styluses of tablets but can't guarantee anything.

Even though I've seen the instructions for disassembly, I do not trust myself with such delicate hw and no appropriate tools.
Would it be heresy to ask for some Nokia people to bring a toolbox to the Maemo Summit and setup an informal service desk? Or at least lease them to a group of trusted users?
Any comments?
(posting it here since I don't know whether it is acceptable to edit the Summit page or not)
