Yet another broken USB port

Line6...seriously, you guys have got to change out the USB port on these, its a RIDICULOUSLY BAD item on an otherwise great piece of gear. Its flimsy and wobbly, and breaks INSTANTLY if you happen to put anything other than the USB female in there. I've now snapped the center post off of TWO UNITS by mistakenly putting the power tip in there, since ITS RIGHT NEXT TO THE POWER HOLE and its dark and busy on stage.

 

Once its broken you are just screwed, since there's no other way to program the things effectively. Even when its NOT broken, its still terrible as it wobbles and loses contact all the time. How could you have put such a lousy part as the central point of failure on such a great piece of gear? Switch it to the regular flat USB, you will save yourselves and us all kinds of problems as the wobbles and fragility will instantly go away. You don't even have to reconfigure the board footprint, the pin layout's the same, just mod the case.

 

Very unhappy.
