I'd suggest that you try a couple more if you have them handy.
Even if the port is messed up fo good, you can flash roms using an sd card (not sdhc! - I use a 1GB). Just put the nbh file in the root directory of a fat32 formatted card and name it VOGUIMG.nbh
Then enter bootloader (Camera+Power+poking+soft reset) to get the tri-colored screen and follow the directions to flash the new rom.
Good luck!

Tried three cables
The one from my dock, the one that came with the phone (With the crazy adaptor for the ugly headphones), and another guys from work. In all cases, the phone charges, but that's about it.
Think i'll try to do the toothpick trick, I've heard it a few times. However I have a leather case for it, and it would be pretty hard for it to get dirty. I take pretty good care of my gadgets, but at this point I'll try anything.
Now, getting back to the flashing roms. You say not sdhc...I have a 4GB, but it's a Micro SDCH....Maybe I should try to find a smaller one? When I entered the tri-colored screen, I see:
VOGU100 MFG
SPL-2.31.CoKe
CPLD-3
Funny thing is, when I have it plugged in, it says USB. What a tease
Guess I'll try to find a 1GB one and see if that works instead.
Cheers!
