Seriously.

I noticed one time trying to charge that it didnt start until I opened the keyboard. Its only happened once.
amazing. you're spot on. twice during the day has my pre-production n900 run out of batteries, and both times the procedure went like this:
  1. plug in power adaptor
  2. see the orange light pulse, wait a few minutes
  3. press and hold the power button: goes white and then no light, nothing happens
  4. remove battery for a minute, insert and repeat steps 1-3 once
  5. after charging for the third time, slide the keyboard
  6. press and hold power button and the n900 starts again

this seems to apply to bug 6806.
