Try this, if you have a car audio setup that connects using the dock connector.

It took me a few minutes of googling to find it.

Amazon.com: Kensington 33368 4-in-1 Auto Charger for iPods: Electronics

oh yeah, my bad, guess I missed that. It's a Kensington 4-in-1 charger with pass through dock connector.

Car chargers are great and all but does anyone know of a FM car dock that charges the 3G? My old DLO one worked fine with EDGE iPhone but refuses to charge my 3G

I have a really nice one at home that worked great with the 1st gen. I'll give it a shot when I get home.

It is in a box somewhere now that I have my new pioneer deck

Belkin TuneCast Auto with ClearScan for iPhone 3G Model F8Z182 $79.95

Belkin TuneCast Auto with ClearScan for iPhone 3G, iPhone - iPhone FM Transmitters - iPhoniacs Store

Works with the 3G, charges and broadcasts. You get the popup that says this accessory not designed....but it works great.

cheers,

Joe

Does anyone know if this is 3G compatible or not?

Yes, it's the workaround for people with 3g. This is a huge problem and all over the Apple forums. We should be seeing a slew of "converters" or "adapters" to hit the market soon. From a business perspective this move to USB only benefits not only Apple, but the vendors that make the accessories.
We, the consumer, always get the sh!t end of the stick...
