I'm looking for inexpensive cigarette lighter charger for iPod 3G with possible line out. I have AUX input in my stereo and my cigarette lighter depowered when a car at park. (I do not worry about draining battery, so I do not need switch off for an adapter) Any recommendations?

MOCKBA,
If you want Line Out (I assume you mean some kind of audio channeling through the dock connector), then the only choice you have at the moment is the Belkin (http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/71508/wo/cd4B9N4HC2hk2Z10DBjYOGbU7fm/1.3.0.5.10). Luckily, it's a really solid product, but not too cheap (MSPR is $39.99). If you can live without the audip portion, then you could get the Griffin PowerPod (http://www.griffintechnology.com/products/powerpodauto/index.html), or the Xtrememac unit (http://www.xtrememac.com/foripod/car_charger.shtml). Neither one of these currently appears to be shipping yet though.
People seem to be really happy with the Belkin, judging from the opinions in the online forums!
Hope this helps :D

Thank you, it looks like eCost has a good deal for the Belkin kit.
