Haha excuse me? 2000 Euro? I guess you got a sack of USB ports with it.

Personally, I'm plugging and unplugging the USB connector of my n900 like there is no tomorrow and never had a problem. Things are there for being used, if I want to copy some mp3 music from a friend at his home or whatever I'm not going to be stopped by the chance of that action wearing out the USB port.

Indeed. Buy OUR crap instead--it's cheaper for you, now!

To be serious for a moment, though, the exchange rate IS yet another reason why Nokia will find it exceedingly difficult to do anything in North America, much less in the USA.

cheap piece of advise...
don't speculate on the exchange rates.
e.g.: Japan just decided that a strong Yen (compared to a weak $) is no good for them, thus....

Is this not a question of TLC!! treat the socket and plug as a male / female thaaang. Had mine in constant use for the last 14 months and no issues but then i always heir on the side of caution

OT: That's what i do heavily, every time being in the US. Ok, it's Asian crap actually. But clothing is way overpriced in Europe. thanks to EU-imposed customs / duty for stuff coming from South East / literally glued together there.

Same here buddy..i used to plug and unplug it like it was indestructible...but eventually my USB port came off and had a very bad time fixing it..its now repaired from Nokia and everything is fine..better safe than worry..

so just be a bit careful wid the port..

I'm going to take it this "battery is 100%" prior to shutting off is not normal. Installed the advanced power application and I STILL do not get any indication of the actual battery level. Any suggestions?
