I'm in the market for some speakers for the iPhone3G right now and have been playing around with a couple different ones. If I find anything I'll post in here what I get out of it.
Personally, I would not be satisfied with iHome units for myself... but the girls use them as both charging stations, and for low level music and/or books on tape.
I use a Bose Soundock II, which I find acceptable. I was not willing to spend $600 so the girls could have them as well. I was willing to spend a total of $200 for them ($99 each).
