i mean why u want to reflash it i think it just need a battery if u can put ur battery in another device and charge it then put it back in ur n900 the device will work as a charm thats the logic i mean it died after the battery was fully drained so it might dont need a reflash.. for now try to go to any center that have 5800 or n900 battery to take the recordered file..
Dose anyone in London know where I can get a external charger that fits the batt.
It might be worth me reposted that request as a new thread I am more likely to get a response?

Even if it dose need to be reflashed
To be honest recharging the bat and re-flashing it myself would make me more comfortable about getting the file

You: 5800 batts are identicle from what I have read
Alex: let me check that for you
Alex: just give me a moment?
You: Cheers
Alex: alright
Alex: i have just checked that
Alex: and its slightly different
Alex: so i wont recommend you to do that online
And if I had someone local to SE23 in london willing to lend me one or charge my batt with there phone Id be more then happy to do it.
All I am saying is I am uncomfortable buying a batt 20-30 quid that vodafone will prolly use as an excuse if the phone breaks.
But to be honest if I cant find the n900 one I prolly will do that.
Currently i am thinking trying to find somewhere that sells the external charger local is my best bet

I still don't get what the problem is.
just calm down and explain:
why in the hell you need to reflash if your battery has gone dead?
e: nokia 5800: BL-5J 1320 mAh
nokia n900: BL-5J
straight from nokias own pages.

there is no nokia 5899 man. 5800 battery is the same one as N900 bttery. I am using it on my N900 right now. I also got desktop charger for charging two at a time. work great.
as for the guy with a dead battery, don't panic just charge it overnight. leave it plugged in and walk away. then in the morning just take the battery out for 10seconds and put it back and turn it on. done....
