Pebble sloppy USB socket

I guess yesterdays downtime lost some posts?

To summarize my last two posts, that are missing.

The Pebble I bought 31days ago broke on Friday morning. Amazon sent me a replacement which I got Saturday morning; well done Amazon.

The fault seemed to be a faulty USB output socket. No cable that worked in other USB sockets worked in the Pebble; I could no longer charge my Desire from the Pebble even though all three LEDs illuminated.

The replacement has a snugger fitting USB socket whereas the broken Pebble had some sloppiness in the socket. I have had to be careful how I placed the Pebble and Desire in order to maintain charging; an indication that something was breaking?

I have tried several different cables, including the one supplied with the broken Pebble and all work in the replacement.

Perhaps something to check when first opening the package?
