Question Hardware question re: display orientation

Just mark my forehead with a big, fat "L", as in La-hoo-za-her (sad attempt at an Ace Ventura spelling)!
I had one of the older 6700s with the sloppy stylus holder and lost the stylus within a month of getting the phone. I subbed a Q-tip until the new one arrived in the mail, but got the Q-tip stuck in the stylus slot and ended up jamming it down further trying to get it out. I got creative and made a hooked paper-clip that succeeded in getting the Q-tip out, but it looks like I bumped something in that hole because now the phone always wants to go to landscape mode. Is there a way to fix it without tearing the phone apart and, if not, do I need to do it in a 'clean room' environment and is it as difficult as I'm dreading? Thanks for any info anyone can provide.

My 2 bits on this site - IT ROCKS! I've played with ROMs from Kirvin, Colonel, BigJ, Sardinour & helmi_c, and most recently been playing in helmi's kitchen. Other friends have gone thru several iterations of phones and I'm still in love with this one, thanks to you all! Hoping I can get to the point where I can actually 'contribute' to the site, either technically or financially or both.
