thanks guys! i tried searching but couldnt find anything - looks like i was missing the keyword "mess" :)

so with the reboot problem, i'll just get my friend to use the phone heavily and see if anything weird happens?

Aranel's list will be helpful for potential buyers, it'll probably be a good idea to make it a sticky. can an admin merge this thread?

Re: New N900 Checklist? What hardware to test for potential problems?
 

slider and keyboard, i know 2 issues in used devices:

1) The keyboard dont hold tight when closed. And when opened, it doesnt stays parallel with the screen.

2) The Backlight doesnt turn off when closed - the phone app doenst go to portait mode. This is because the magnetic switch is damaged. Some says that the magnetic case lock can damage the switch.

The first can be fixed. The second, no.
