Just to clear this up:
Swapping the physical CPU is entirely possible - some would even say it's easy. If you google "reballing" there are tons of videos with people doing this successfully on all kinds of electronics, including cell phones.
This doesn't mean it would work though :-)
Get to work on that one you lot hahaha.

Just to add salt to the doubters... if only you knew just how easy it is to replace ANY ic on a mobile you would probably gasp in shock as it is only a few seconds work !.

When this wishful debate took place, did anyone believe that a full year and a half later (and counting, and counting) the N900 would still be Nokia "flagship" device

That would be amazing, go ahead and...
What about upgrade the memory from 256 mb to 512 mb or more?
There are many bricked phones that cost $5 or $10 bucks in eBay and we can swap the memory module - Numonyx M39L0R7070 (MCP - 128Mb NOR Flash, 128Mb Mobile DDR).
Look at this link to see what other parts can be upgraded...

buy some ticket to china buy some grenades throw one outside nokia factory, get in and take one chip for myself 
I'm pretty sure they have one for R & D and I'm sure it won't be over $100
