How long will you wait!! (every user)
Won't doing this invalidate the warranty? My primary N900's cell modem has recently stopped working and according to Nokia's website it is still under warranty so I'll probably send it back this week or next (if a flash doesn't fix it). I'd rather not do anything potentially destructive while I still might need the warranty. Also I'm not terribly confident with my soldering skills, I'd probably be able to do it, but I still don't want to risk damaging a working N900.

I'm content with using an external battery charger and treating the USB port with care when I do need to use it.
