You can buy any faulty Nokia phone with microUSB & take out it's microUSB & solder it on your N900's circuit board.
.It is not damaged at all and if he goes to the usb fix thread he will get all the info he needs to put it back in place.
Go take a look and decide what to do.

You need to clean up first and get all the legs tinned ready to work on.
You need to look at the tracks for ALL the legs and see if it is possible to solder back exactly as it came off, every break is different and if the tracks are ripped off then you will have to link wire the legs as per the diagram.
Do NOT link pins 1 and 2 together.
Please check the board condition now the port has ripped off, you WILL be able to scrape away the paint and solder the jacket down to earth as it is explained on the usb fix thread but you need to make sure the port is aligned properly.
Report back on the board state and i will assist you further ok.
PS your going to need a very fine tip to be able to attach anything to those data legs on the rear.

Is there still a chance for this phone to live?
Btw, there are no Nokia care centers where I come from.
