Default iPhone 3G with Belkin TuneBase

It does work with the new iPhone 3G. I just received them into our store - WestWorld Computers - Calgary. The clips (made of plastic) are made for the older iPhone, so it is a snug fit but works good. The 3g iPhone charges and plays via the FM. I just tried it in our Jeep Liberty (factory deck)
I will try in my other car over the weekend (which has aux audio jacks). This Belkin product is great that it does both Aux and FM Transmitter.

I hope Belkin will provide a new clip real soon to mail out to customers directly to fit the new iphone 3G properly.

I had to get this Belkin product, because my custom dock with a peripherial cable for my factory deck does not work with the new 3g phone at all. This is due to it being a Fire Wire based charging system, not Apple's recommended USB charging system as of later. Hope this helps.

Has anyone tried this one for the 3G, and comment on the FM sound quality?
I have returned several previous FM Transmmitters due to crappy quality, and still continue to use the Cassette-Wired connection for the best quality...
...but wondering if any improvements have been made with their TuneCast FM transmissions...
