That is a clear indication that your USB port is broken. The fact that another charger works may be because of a very slightly different shape of the connector, possibly the teeth, pushing the connector less off the PCB. That is also a good hint that the problem is fixable, you just need to open the phone and solder the connector back down.

I also noticed that while the N900's off it drains the battery; the keyboard stays lit.
I don't get that bit.
