I've just picked up a Solio Mono from REI (I can't seem to travel within a few miles of an REI without buying something) and it seems to charge the n900 without any issues. It was $49.99 retail, has a 1000mah internal battery, and charges via solar or USB.

Cheers!
Shorting the signal wires is the (standard?) way to signal the presence of a dumb charger capable of sourcing at least 500mA. I'd wager that the N900 uses this to decide if it can sink charging current from your external sources. Cut open a spare USB cable, short the data lines (inner pair), and see if your charging problem is fixed.
If you have a multimeter, you can confirm if the official Nokia charger does this internally by measuring the resistance between the data pairs. The charger can be unplugged prior to probulation.
Sadly, I can't test any of this myself, 'cos I'm still waiting for Dell to ship my phone.
