The place where the charger plugs into the ipod is broken (metal wired damaged) can this be fixed??? 30 GIG has video and pix

So with broken firewire ports I’ve heard of people moving around the pins with a paperclip or something similar and trying to realign them, doesn’t necessarily last or work, but worth a try. Maybe you can upload a picture of the damage so people here can see and give suggestions.
