2 .. fixed broken USB on each

Nice! I still have to do the "solder usb connection" method to prevent issues. Want to start soldering my least favorite N900 first and work my way up from there until they are all fixed and then can handle a bit more of me.

I now officially have three! I bought one a couple of days from a lady who had a screen protector on the phone from day one! It was hardly used since she didn't fully exploit the Maemo OS. Price was €192 and I would rate it as a brand new phone. So happy as N900 are so difficult to get here in Ghana. Taken off the screen protector just for now and I'm surprised how clear and sharp the display is for a 2009 phone!

Excellent!

@tcbl50: no screen protector == scratches

Lost count around 8 ,
one suffers from all telephone functions disabled and 2 others from no more GPS.
Remarkably I have never come across USB port issues.

Yeah I will put one on. I just wanted to savour the experience

3 or 4
1 factory sealed,
my original phone which i use as a mp3 player
and 2 chines refurbs.

2 devices
- first one bought second hand in 2010 (mint condition) used as main phone till now
- second one bought in 2014 as backup phone (screen scratches and slider issues, I had to bought new screen and slider, too), now used by my wife as main phone

now I need another backup phone

My collection:

3x N900 (one used heavily, one almost as new and one functional for spare parts)

1x N950 that I picked up on e-bay, with defected screen in a corner, with some wear but overall working)

1x Jolla phone, which turned out to be a complete garbage, might actually start using N900 again.

I have two, both working fine until recently I started noticing one might have a problem with telephony. Seems to only get EDGE on T-Mobile. Is that a sign of the common problem, or is it a network problem? T-Mobile has been transitioning their bands to 4G, so at first I thought that might be it.
