Well supposedly t-mobile was doing the same according to rumors, but t-mobile finally added some info saying they were not. Then added that some phone may not work because of old software and the usability to upgrade. Though they didn't specify what SW needed updating.
But in the end of the day it's Feb and my n900 still works!!! Thank the lords, since the my PinePhone is not yet ready for my daily use.
So maybe it will be similar in your case, but you still have 2 years of n900 fun.

re: USB sockets on N900
A couple days ago I thought mine died, since I plugged in the phone and it boot-looped continuously. But I changed charger ports, and all was well. Turns out it didn't work with the 2A power-only port on my Vantec (or Lantec, stylized font is confusing) combo USB 3.0 hub/charger device. The 1A power port and the "real" USB 3.0 ports worked just fine.
Still, I should get my rear in gear and reinforce that port before I regret not doing it.

Sorry about that. It was related on a shallow way that now fixing these boards may not have as far reaching benefit as I thought and because I did not find that thread about 3G network going down which I had read earlier, and did not want to make another thread just about this info but did not wan't to be without posting it, it ended up here. I hoped that someone would have straight away found the other thread with the right topic and said "this belongs to this thread" and all would have been almost like no harm done.

Shortly: 3G will go, but 2G stays. Bottle openers will continue functioning!

I hope the experiments with N900 boards didn't include any explosives. Have been silent for a while. Maybe just busy getting them extra ram and faster chip.

All the boards will be ready after Easter. Honestly, so sorry for that but Chinese contact which had the chips never respond for my message. But still have some hopes.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but I am making it a habit to believe only news, not rumour.
Somehow I can't imagine Finland to break support for all those bottle openers still in use... (joking aside, there's plenty of telephony-only devices that rely on 2G/3G, also new ones)
