It looks nice in the dock. But I have a problem...

Remember during the keynote when the iPhone was revealed how Steve made such a big deal about the placement of the speakers for conference calling/being on the speaker phone? They are place on the bottom of the iPhone so the sound doesn't become muffled when the phone is laying flat.

Well, if you ask me, they are in a piss poor place, because it would be badass if you could use the speaker phone function when the iPhone is docked.

Huge overlook on their part.

Good call, I hope a 3rd party will make a dock that addresses that.

Or Apple could add some speakers in the Dock...

If docked, couldn't one run the speakerphone through your mac's speakers and iChat mic?

Or since the dock would perfectly align the phone with it (due to the connector), they could just put the holes in the dock to keep the sound moving out of the dock. I dont see how this would really muffle the phone... except now the speakers are sitting on your desk... maybe you could drill holes in your desk too. :rolleyes:
 
I doubt the dock will come with the iPhone. If it does, I'll be disappointed in Apple for losing their touch on how to squeeze money out of people. It's such a great way for them to make another $30.
 
White Dock!!!!

A Black and Chrome iPhone with a WHITE dock. Why not a black or uber cool chrome dock.

Apple must be getting a super discount on white plastics.

I am so over all this white stuff
It's so 2001 iPod and iBook.

Yeah, I think it is just cheaper to make the white dock... that way we can have it for free with our phone. :D :rolleyes:
