Third-party iPhone charge/sync cradle debuts

Though Apple includes a dock with the unit, WirelessGround has released its own charging and synchronization cradle designed for the iPhone. The device allows users to synchronize and recharge their iPhones using a USB-based Mac or PC, holding the phone at a slight angle for easier viewing. It includes a blue light LED indicator, and can also charge directly from AC power. It does not, however, include the integrated audio-out port nor speaker grill of the Apple iPhone dock. The WirelessGround USB Sync and Charge Cradle is priced at $23 and available immediately.

"Sync is initiated from the HotSync application on the iPhone"

I don't get it… Why would anyone sell a product that comes free with the iPhone?

RE: Beluga not getting it

Lots of people (sometimes me, although not yet) purchase a docking station...one for home, one for work, maybe one for travel. I have yet to use the audio out, ever (on iPhone or iPod).

They might be selling this, because Apple's cradle doesn't work with many of the protective cases that cover the iPhone (my InCase case included).
