Sony Vaio FW power port has a little play in it, is this normal?

Sony Vaio FW owners, do you beleive this is OK and not a thing to be concerned about or do you think this is a really bad thing?

when I push the port in it moves a little bit and creak, do you beleive I should be worried? it doesn't feel like it will break but there is a little play in the AC adaptor housing.

I have the F12 series and tongiht, I noticed my power port was wiggling in the housing a tad which I hadn't noticed before. So I carefully pulled it out and the plastic surrounding the connectors came too!! The laptop is only 2.5 months old and I have to call Sony now to get them repair it during warranty as I have been completely careful with the whole product (wasn't cheap, as we all know!). So a tad disappointed that such a critical component can break so easily... Hope yours hasn't broken in the time since you added your message!
