1 Star Does not fit 3G iPhone, I question the workmanship
My review will provide conflicting information to previous reviews. That said I provide my review in good faith hoping it will prevent another buyer from encountering the same problem.

This car charger does NOT fit 3g iPhones. I purchased this car charger at WalMart which sells it a dollar cheaper then the lowest price currently listed on Amazon (1 Feb, 2009.) When the first unit would not attach where the base of the phone connects to the charging cord, I returned it for an exchange. With permission from WalMart Management I opened a second (and subsequently two additional) units to see if they would fit my iPhone. None of the Griffin PowerJolt Car Chargers would attach. To assure myself my iPhone wasn’t at issue, I was allowed to open a different manufacturer’s product and that car charger fit correctly.

I strongly recommend you try this product before buying it. If other members are able to connect this to their 3G iPhone then there are significant differences in the quality and workmanship found in this Griffin product line.

3 Stars Adequate - could be better
Works as advertised. I think the cord is about a foot too short. Besides that, it works as advertised.

4 Stars It works…
Wasn’t too happy that my 3G iPhone would not charge with my iPod auto charger, but fortunately this one is not expensive, and works just fine.

4 Stars Works great though cable length could not be enough for you
Works great with my iPhone and it does what I needed to do which is recharge the phone while I’m on the car. However, if you are the type of person that likes to talk while recharging then the cable might not let you drive and talk and charge at the same time. You can extend the cable but still it is far from being comfortable. Anyway, it does what I needed so I’m happy with it.

5 Stars iPod Touch 2.0: It Works!
I was skeptical at first since the sync cable from the 1st generation Touch won’t work for the 2nd generation. No worries. It works. You could pay $26 at Best Buy, but why?

Also, personal preferences being what they are, I prefer a black cable to a white one in my car. YMMV.
