It shouldn't hurt the phone to shoot some canned air into the USB port to blow out anything that might be inside it. I don't know if that will help with the dust in the screen. I haven't really had to deal with a situation like that so I don't know what the preferred way to clean it up is (if there is one).

My Curve has dust inside, not from the usb connection, but rather on the top-right corner. I'd guess the screen gasket wasn't sealed as well as it should have been. I haven't done it yet, but I plan to buy a new shell and I will clean the screen and re-seat it to avoid dust inside the device.
