AC adapter plug falls out of jack!

Has anybody else had this problem?  I have a Vostro 1500 -5 months old and Dell haa sent me a replacement AC adapter but it still has the same problem.  I do move the laptop around a bit, but never pulling on the cord, and yet the plug just falls out of the jack while I am working.  My adapter is Rev 03 which is pretty new, I guess.  Right now I am working with someone else's adapter which is Rev 02 and seems a little more stable.  Is it possible that the plugs are different?

Thanks.

I know this is an old thread but I bought a 3d printer and finally made a small device to fix this issue. If you have a 3D printer then I have made the files available for you to print here..
