Given the fact that you have no choice at this point, I would take the position that you are eligible to port to another employer (as long as the job is "similar") since your I-485 has been pending more than 180 days. It may go right through, or you may be in for a serious fight with INS, but either way you have no choice. You have an arguable interpretation that your I-485 remains approvable. Just make sure that you are prepared to argue it.
