On/Off Button doesn't work! iPhone permanently on.

Hello -
-I didn't see any guides tackling this particular issue: My on/off switch is not working. I'm ready to change carriers, and I need to turn my phone on/off a lot during jailbreak/unlock.

When I apply pressure to it, it simply doesn't turn off. I'm thinking some lever is not making contact or something?
-What is this system like and is it worth trying to fix it myself? or should I just get a new phone?
