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

Yes

The charger delivered with device charges the battery internally in the device, if the device is not bricked.

No apologies needed. This is an interesting miscommunication.

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.

I'm on WIN7 as well, but don't have my phone yet. A "solution" may be XP Mode in Win 7. What ver. of PC Suite? Maybe you have the wrong ver. since others have been using it?


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.
