Good iPhone Charging Dock,

This review is from: Black Charging Dock Cradle Charger For Apple iPhone 3G 3GS (Electronics)
This is a nice little charging dock for the iPhone 3G/3Gs. It is sleek and matches the black iPhone nicely. It comes with a black standard USB cable, but you may want to get the Black 2-Port USB Home Travel Charger for Apple iPhone 1st, 2nd 3G, 3rd 3Gs, Ipod Touch 1st, Touch 2G, Ipod Nano to go with it so you can plug it into a wall outlet.
My only gripe (and why I didn't give it 5 stars) is that you cannot have any type of case on your iPhone when using this dock. The cradle area of the dock is form fitted to the bottom of the iPhone 3G/3Gs. So any case or covering on the bottom of the iPhone will prevent it from fitting into the dock. I have an Incase Slider case on my iPhone that has a small piece on the bottom that slides off to allow for docking, so its not too big of a problem.

Works okay, with some caveats,

This review is from: Black Charging Dock Cradle Charger For Apple iPhone 3G 3GS (Electronics)
When I first put my phone in this cradle, it wouldn't charge at first. I got a message on the phone that this device could not charge the iPhone model I had (3GS) but after removing and reseating the phone a few times, it began to charge. The phone never feels fully seated in this charger, and can rock slightly sideways back and forth when in it.
Also, you should be aware that unlike Apple's cradle, this one has no cutouts in the base to allow sound out from the iPhone speakers. You have to set your ring to max volume to hear it at all.

Well I ordered the item and got it today. The free cord they sent me wont work. I used my old cord and it seem to work better. It also does not fit in the cradle very well. Not happy with this item at all. If anyone at the company reads this and want to make it right, maybe they have one around that works, send it too me. You have my info.
