I bought my iPhone 3G a few months ago but didn’t see the point in paying 30 bones for the iPhone dock ”it doesn’t even come with the required cable! One day I looked around my desk at work and saw my plastic dinosaur toys that I keep there to remind me to stay young and playful (and because I’m a huge Serenity/Firefly/Wash fan ^___^ ). "Perfect!" I thought and grabbed my trusty Dremel tool and iPhone cable. A floor full of yellow plastic shavings and four fingers super-glued together later… I had my precious iPhone dock.
Brilliant. I don ‘t generally find myself yearning for an iPhone dock, but I love dinos and really want to give this a try. 🙂
