Tablets, especially MIDs have VERY flimsy pins in their charging ports. Using or moving the tablet while it's plugged in or pushing/pulling too hard on the cord will result in the pin breaking off. If you need to recharge why not just hook it up to a standard computer/laptop via the USB port on your system? It'll recharge the tablet quickly.

If your unit's under warranty take it back to the store for a replacement. Do try to wipe all your personal info from the tablet. REMEMBER deleting a file does NOT remove it - you need to reformat the drive in order to prevent your personal info from being recovered. [same goes for those turning in used phones, ipods etc.]

If it's out of warranty you can try a local computer repair shop. I do NOT recommend techs from chain stores - they're pretty much useless. You'll probably find the cost of repair is close to a new tablet, so you might consider replacing it.
