Alternative docks?

Are there other docks out there besides the apple ones and the Griffin dock? I think all the current ones at the apple store are lacking in the design and in support for docking with a case(not so much for the griffin one). I have had both of the apple docks, and ended up returning both. Has anyone been successful on making their own? I know someone on here had drawn a design of one...

I have the apple dock, but I like the looks of this stand...

That looks really great, but $40?? That's a lot of money for that little thing.

Agreed! I also don't like anything that puts stress on the bottom of the ipad like that.

I agree it just holds it!

. What I want to know is if is if you keep the Apple case on if it would still fit, that would get more interested...
