Here is an update.

I got the usb connectors in the other day, and I finally got around to replacing the connector tonight. After some cussing at my desoldering braid which had a mind of its own. I got the broken connector out with no major problems, and soldering in the new one was pretty easy also. The only thing I did notice was there is a small spacer soldered on the board that blocked the usb connector from seating properly. So, I had to desolder that and slide it behind a small tab on the back of the connector, then resolder it with everything else. You can see the solder point, it is the top middle point on the first picture.

Here is a picture of the finished soldering job. The picture is a little blurring because my camera is horrible at closeups

Here it is put back together. A perfect fit.

...and finally, here it is running (with my tangle of wires).
