Dremels are amazing tools, aren't they? When Apple released the 3G iPhone, they cut the prices, and they also cut some of the standard accessories that came with the iPhone. The base is no longer a standard accessory, and to get it would cost an additional $29. If you already had a first generation iPhone you can take the base that came with it and easily mod it to fit the new phone.
Hard Mac user linathael took his dremel and camera and showed how he easily converted his old iPhone dock to fit the thicker 3G model. The pictures explain the process clearly, mark the space for the new phone and use a high quality bit in the Dremel to get a clean cut. A little bit of polish and you're all set.
Take a look at linathael's slideshow here .
