Slickest iPhone Snap In Cradle Yet

Thought I would share this with a few folks:

The German customization boutique Attractive For MINI (www.attractive4mini.com) is working on a pretty slick iPhone snap in cradle. Pics below are from the prototype only. They are supposed to release more information soon.


They are also working on a gear shift indicator built into the steering wheel: http://www.facebook.com/video/video....09705329055386

It certainly looks nice. Don't know how functional it would since it looks to only work in landscape.

That is really sweet. Jeremy1026 makes a really good point, it better be able to rotate.

Love the look of it. I wonder if they'll make it with charging capabilities, and the iPod interface, so you can dock it and still control the phone through the raido??

That is excellent! Not holding my breath for a Gen1 version, but boy is that clean and elegant.

Any updates on this iPhone dock yet? And does it support full audio and data passthru? (Works with MINI Connected, not just for charging) It's still not on their website...

God forbid Apple do something useful and enable landscape mode.

Don't think this ever got off the ground. I emailed a guy from the website that posted on another forum but got no response; its a real shame I would have definitely got one.
