I'm in the same boat. Got my N900 delivered on Dec 10th, got it activated on the 11th. The mic doesn't work, and hasn't worked since moment one. I never installed the FM radio app.
Well, I have one dead pixel on the lower left side. Got a replacement device but I haven't received it yet. The rest was fine. Battery was great. I had no reboots and no mic problems.
Quick update. Sent my faulty N900 back to Nokia on 04/12 (mic was not working) and they have sent me out a replacement out today (15/12) and hopefully I will receive it in the morning. More hopefully it will be working.
Just for arbitrary information there's approx 577,000 of a difference between the previous and the new IMEI's.

4th? Blimey- I was hoping they'd be quicker than that. Sent mine back this morning. I was hoping to get it back for Chriastmas.
As you know, I too have an N900 with a non-functioning microphone. Reflashing the firmware did nothing to resolve the problem. I talked to Nokia today, and they refuse to repair or replace it; they say I have to go back to the retailer. Amazon won't replace it either. They will refund my money, but they will not ship a new device. The price has gone up significantly since I placed my pre-order, so no matter what, I'm going to incur additional out-of-pocket costs to get this factory defect corrected, which is total BS if you ask me.
