damn feel bad for the people with mic problem!

All i can say is taking any anger out at nokia when speaking to them to replace it won't do you any favours, being nice about it, but getting your point accross however may see you receive something in compensation, after all you have pre-ordered a long time ago, been faithful etc

Does anyone know if there's a debug option on alsaped? Or a way from the cli to simulate the different audio profiles?

Glad that some people have working phones. I've tried all sorts and nothing has worked, so at the moment I've resigned to using a bluetooth headset with the device for now (will return after a good play).

Thank God! No mic problem!
Turned on, call other mobile number = OK. Then plug to charge for the first time, attempted call while charging = OK. Voice quality good in both.

What other defects should I be testing for?
What's that memory issue?

There seems to be big problem with mail for exchange 2003 which evidently is unsupported and even exchange 2007 has folder issues. Can you test these?

That's not the reset button! It is the mic! No wonder your mic doesn't work

Check the TV out as well. I'd suggest checking you can get a GPS lock too.

Cool. I will check these while I get back from a meeting in an hour.
Keep them coming.

My batch is the same batch as those with mic + tv out defects.
Trying to narrow down if it got something to do with first charge.

At the moment all I can say is

DO NOT CHARGE FIRST THEN TURN ON YOUR N900!

and use N97's charger if possible
i have a feeling these N900's adapters are screwed
