Les, I know this is not much as an answer, but with Time I have just managed to hit the hole pretty accurately. THe connection is not super tight so what I have done to remove it is grab the connector as close to the connecting point as I can and work it out. One suggestion I read about and had not gotten around to trying is adapting a really stiff wire or some piece of material that you can rap tape to the usb cable. THis would provide a firmer section to the cable which makes it easier to maneuver. Although if you have the case I know a lot of folks just leave the cable attached and store it behind the flap of the case when closed. I believe there is a solution, but it would take resources to implement.
