When on desktop, slide out keyboard and start typing brings up contacts and will search whatever you type in.

Besides which, the box that your N900 comes in includes an external charger, yes?

Apologies if I've misunderstood what you're trying to say, but isn't this just a one to file in the "No s**t, Sherlock" drawer?
The N900 uses the cpu to manage charging. If you have trashed your filesystem or otherwise bricked your device so that it can not boot, it will not charge from usb or wall-charger. This is behavior i haven't seen before in devices, so i thought it was worth mentioning.

PC Suite 7.1.40.1 just installed without a hitch on 7 32bit. Others are using it as well. I would install as administrator. Not sure what your Boggle is?

you can download the official maps for your country here and copy over the cities folder onto the N900.
example how do i save favourite locations
how do i start navigations and etc.
settings is bit blank no options like in my old phn e71
and so on and on
