It is Obvious my friend. You N900 is not original, cos these letters on the keyboard are very strong against nails and durable.
My advise refer to your local purchasing center, & let them change it with original keyboard.
It depends on the environment you live in and what you expose the N900 to I guess.
I've had mine since 28/12 (about 6 months) and the keypad is still the same as it was

thats so strange! I was one of the firsts that had the N900. And I didn't have had any problems. no reboot loops, no dead pixel, no loose usb port, no weared off keyboard.
what I'm doing wrong??

A friend has an N900 and his keys are wearing.. He's owned his slightly less time than I have but his keys are shiny, where as mine are matte..
his have started to wear, its almost like the underside of the screen is rubbing against them..
It's very strange to compare them side by side.. his keyboard looks more like an E90's in texture (or at least my old E90)
He treats his N900 with far more respect than I do.. mine is a bit of a dirty work horse.. so it is strange that his keyboard seems to be suffering..
Not all N900s are built the same.. maybe there is a very slight difference in keyboard quality.. a dodgy batch perhaps..

I have had mine since January and the letter 'e' is completely worn through on keyboard. But they say its the most commonly used letter in the alphabet.
Also the 'a' and 't' are starting to go.

Another thread worthless without pictures...
I havent had any issues with my keyboard and i've had my n900 since november. I use my keyboard heavily but I always make sure my hands are clean before I use it. All my keys still have their original matte finish

maybe it depends on the source of your N900s? i have been using mine for 6 months now, no rattling, anything loose or paint worn out, mine is made in Korea and it shipped from the Netherlands, ordered from Nokia's UK website. But it could be the sweat from your fingers with a lot of sun, maybeeee?
