I have an old Griffin firewire (3rd Gen iPod) car charger and tested it with iPhone... it works!

Ive been looking everywhere for something like this. I've tried posting a thread about it and didn't really get any responses.

Also, style is a requirement. Why do all these docks have to be ugly as all hell?

the only thing i've seen like this is the dension system which u should have been able to find on similar threads. Search for it on the web and u will find that it is expensive, only available from foreign suppliers, and has no tech support.

as of the v1.0.1 software update, iPhones will no play sound through the audio out function of the 30 pin dock cable.

this means any iPod charger/dock for the car, will work with the iPhone.

The iPhone will spit out the standard "this product not designed... blah blah blah yes/no" dialog box.

If you want annoying GSM interference, hit no... if you want clear music, hit yes.


As such, any attractive solution to putting an iPod in your car, will work with the iPhone.

Well as one should do with all things costing money, I checked on ebay and found that these puppies can be picked up from a number of suppliers for various vehicle brands for as little as $20. Probably remaindered from when the company pulled out of the u.s. The original prices I found on the official website were closer to $200. Still no tech support but for that small an investment who cares? I bought one just for the dock/holder to wire directly into my aux input and power supply without using the fancy Dension electronics. I'll let you know how it goes...
