hi all,

ive recently discovered that a sound can be heard coming from the screen whenever i press it at the right border - basically where the display ends on the right hand side - pretty much along the whole hight. seen how the screen is very scratch prone, hence fingernails are out of the question, i tend to scroll back in the browser by applying my thumb from the outer edge and make a sweeping motion to the left. no extra pressure is applied and the sound only appears on this side of the screen. it occurs when the device is warm, as during charging (90% of the time ) and i think the thin layer of plastic covering the lcd itself gets "glued" to the lcd, and the "ungluing" produces the noice. anyone noticed anything similar?

issue 2:

can anyone confirm a crack under the "x" and "c" characters through which light protrudes? i think its been there from day 1.

issue 2 i can confirm on my own n900. I noticed it the first day but didnt care too much as its only really noticable when using the n900 in the dark and the light from the backlit keyboard shines through the crack. Plus thats normally where i place my left thumb so i dont notice it too often.

I've got the gap under C/V and to a lesser extent under the N key. My screen 'clicks' around the bottom right of the screen.

the top left of the lcd frame seems to be a little loose. can anyone confirm this? if you hold the top and bottom left of the screen and shake it up and down. there is a slight play?

Could it be the memory card slot under the battery cover? That is the only rattling sound I get from my device when I shake it.
