Tis a bit tight in something that small. Unless you can get a service manual or something that would let you get an exact part number for the jack you might have trouble just cramming any old thing into the space. I only got into these things last month but I have been reading pretty heavy and haven't seen any reference to that level of hardware info being available.
Alternately, since a 1/8" earphone jack is a standard electronic part, how hard would it be for someone who knows about replacing electronic parts to get the case open and put a new earphone jack in themselves? (My brother is an electrical engineer; I suspect I could get him to do it.) Are any special tools required?
