i got the click too 2 days ago after leaving it exposed to the sun for 10 mins to get gps lock. at the time i was pretty frustrated about it happening when it didn't b4. but after leaving my phone in door for a day droping back down to room temperature, the click went away.

In regards to the "clicking" of the screen near the edges/border: it could indeed be that the top layer gets stuck to the metal frame of some sort.
I took a fine sheet of paper, cleaned the gap between top layer and the metal frame and the clicking stopped. a link to this solution has been posted a page or two further back in this thread.

A few days ago the clicking sound at the middle-middle to middle-top of the screen started, goes away after like an hour of sitting but then after a couple of taps on the top it comes back eventually to "full volume".

If it doesnt click any more its probably the slider mechanism expanding like the old N95 wear and tear issue.
Is the mechanism covered by the warrenty? Please tell me it is, but don't lie to me. Mines does not click when the slider is open btw.

After 6 months of perfection my N900 now makes this "crunch" when I press in the top-right corner of the screen.

I just got the clicking too, right on the n900 text where the close button is.
I was thinking oh noooo, I've broked it!!!
Here's a solution to those without a magazine handy...spit on your screen then wipe it in firmly with a soft cloth (I used my t-shirt), slightly squeezing the screen, I got a very loud click and then no more clicks at all...brilliant.
Maybe it's just me but when using a screen protector do you find you get an accumulation of gunk around the edge of the protector/screen?
Maybe this is whats causing it, or at least a contributing factor.
just my 2p
