WANTED: Line Out with dock pass through

[terranaut]

Before you all complain, I have searched.

Does anybody sell a docklet Line-out with a Dock passthrough?

I have a Belkin car charger and a Saturn Ion with an Aux 3.5mm input on the factory stereo.

I would like to be able to plug the aux into a line-out as still be able to use the charger whilst in the car, & also be able to use the Line-out on my home equipment & power my iPod using the Apple charger.

The charger has a dock connector right? I haven't seen any dock->3.5mm adapters with a passthrough connector... but Belkin also sells a car charger that has a 3.5mm output:

Thanks, but the Belkin unit states that it has an amplifier in it, that's one of the reasons that I want to use the line out, so that I can bypass the headphone amplifier.

How about one of these:

I was thinking about that unit also, a bit concerned about the comments complaining about the distortion of load music.

It's a pity that Sik don't make a USB 2.0 version tho' as I would have to buy a firewire AC adaptor. I have the AC adaptor with a USB out instead of firewire.
