If anyone is reading this because their USB connection broke, like mine did, and don't want to pay for a new one (not that they exist in cheap form either), I found an excellent solution.
www.PocketPCTechs.com - I just got my phone back today (gone for less than a week) where they fixed my USB connection for $60 + $10 shipping FedEx. While there, they found my camera button broken (I forgot to tell them about that) and they fixed it.
Compared to my other only option for buying for $110 and soldering a new USB connector from another place myself (I'm here for software, not hardware), I'm very happy with their service.
Now onto finding the latest kitchen.
