I was a little irritated when Apple didn't include a dock for the iPhone 3G. That, the $30 price tag, and general laziness are the reasons I still haven't bought one. I've been able to improvise when I need one, but these DIY instructions on how to make your own cardboard iPhone dock have made my day.
Get your cardstock or thin cardboard, download the provided (free) PDF, and watch the video to make your own too. The other perk besides the whole free thing? The design possibilities are endless — I'm already perusing the pretty cardstock at Paper Source!

I wonder if this will work for my iPod touch too.
1Haha, well this is my last resort
2what a way to improvise!
I'm curious if the cardboard will actually hold up the weight of phone. I have the new blackberry Storm, I wonder if this would work for that... Anyway, I'm thinking the plain ol' cardboard can be spruced up with some decorative paper that can be glued on to cardboard so it won't look so blah. Hmm...
3oopsie, while reviewing my comment, I just noticed geeksugar's last sentence on how browsing the Paper source. :embarrassed:
4Awesome Idea :]
