USB on N900 is too power hungry for a always on connection, even if you dont charge or do anything. You have to pull the plug.
I wonder about this one; do you mean that the N900 chipset itself consumes a lot more power when USB is used, even if the connected device is not drawing any power from the N900?
I guess that's possible. Might be that more modern USB chipsets are designed differently.
