I personally have no issues with the jack breaking, but the actual plug from the charger is crap since the tip is so small. I'm on my 4th one (good thing they're so cheap) because the tip would bend and eventually crack. The first time it happened was because the N800 fell a foot with the charger still attached. Other times it has happened are once just put inside my bag traveling and once it was stepped on.

Completely ridiculous how easy it breaks. I've never had that issue with a charger for any other device ever, so its really annoying.
