I rebooted the device just as well, but the problem is still there...
You didn't type it correctly then, make sure that there are no spaces in the path. It seems that you've put a space after the tilda effectively trying to delete all in the home dir.

Kurtis, everything set up by itself when I first put in my SIM card.
The contract I have allows for 1.8 gigabyte internet traffic per month.
I just have to choose the default internet connection and go.
So no, never entered any IP address nor had I to set set up the 3G connection myself.
I had to do it for my previous mobile (HTC P3300), but N900 did everything by itself...

I reflashed using this guidelines:

Switched off mobile, connected to my desktop via USB while still off and holding the U key till the top right corner of the n900 displayed the usb icon, then entered the lines in the CMD.

Yes, you are right, there was a space after the ~ and yes, I ve lost everything from MyDocs, but I have a ful back up to restore from...

That's the best way, maybe you should try it again and see if the problem still exist before you do a restore.

ok, I managed to have it working now. I basically kept restoring the wrong back up after flashing the memory.
Thanks everyone for helping out.

hi, i'm having the same problem, youtube isn't openning in the browser, at all, and all the time, how did you fix this man ??please
