I have a Archos 101 G9 and a few weeks ago the charing port started getting loose. Two days ago the metal sleeve completed disconnected from the unit and although is still inside the port, I am not able to charge the unit. Its out of warranty and I cannot afford (or justify the $100+) necessary to have Archos fix it. I was wondering...can the unit be charged using a USB cable connected from the 3G port to my computer? Or how easy would it be to reattach the metal sleeve back where it belongs? I'm OK with opening up the back of the unit, especially since its basically a "brick" now but how easy is it to reattach the charger sleeve?
Any help would be most appreciated. I tried looking for a previous post RE this issue but could not find it.
Thanks
