I see it's been 10 days and no one replied... Ok... i'm not the expert here, but AFAIKAFAIKAFAIK, $the$ $USB$ $drive$ $mode$ $does$ $not$ $show$ $any$ $of$ $the$ $software$ $directories$, $those$ $stay$ $hidden$ $on$ $the$ $system$ $partitions$ $accessible$ $only$ $from$ $inside$ $the$ $OS$.
Doctor can push individual files into those directories, and i wouldn't be surprised if something can be written to pull down the file structures in much the same way, but i doubt it's been done yet. ...If that existed, i'd be using it right now, this very moment, on my own Pre+
I think your best bet is to buy a new screen and use the Pre Backup Utility to gather those files for you and place the compressed archive in the USB partition.
After that, you can wipe and sell the whole phone if you are looking to recoup the cost of the new screen. If the old screen is not cracked, it can then be resold as the "digitizer" (touch panel) for those who have shattered theirs.
Anyway, i know this is not what you wanted to hear, but i hope it helps... there are things that could have been done before the screen died to allow you to SSH into the phone and do whatever you want, but it looks like at this point it's not possible unless one of the pros here can rig WebOS Doctor to push some software that probably doesn't exist yet.
Oh, and if your digitizer is not dead and you can pop out the keyboard, perhaps you can enter developer mode blindly, by entering the code and then pressing on the part of the screen that has the confirmation button. Someone with a working phone will need to explain that, not me. If you can manage to do that, maybe the pros can help you from there...
If my phone didn't "eat" batteries, i would probably be able to show you what needs to be done, but anyhow, the developer mode will allow the novaterm terminal running on your computer to interface with the Pre and copy certain files around....
