I'll second the "Belkin Tunecast" ---- the older version (model # F8Z176) works great with the 3G phone. The "airplane" pop up comes on when you dock it, but you choose to stay out of this mode and it works fine. Most of the Apple stores carry the old version (listed for ipod) at their stores in stock

I Really like the point of just pluging it in to the cig lighter and sliding the 3G in and out of the cradle. It's way more conveniant than others and charges the phone as well as streams music over the car speakers, even "Pandora" works great

I have been serching for the newest model "F8Z183" which is compatible with the iphone but Apple website shows 6-8 weeks out on availability. I'm also told that Target may carry the same product.
