Need an iPhone dock that will work with iPhones in a protective case

I have a 3gs in a Incase protective case. It does make the overall dimension of the phone a little thicker so that may cause problems on most docks. The case is on rather tight so it's a pain to take it off and back on every time I wanna dock it. So the question is, is there a docking station, speaker system, or alarm clock that will fit an Iphone with a case on? I've looked at a few online but none ever mentions if it will work with cases.

I have the same phone (3GS) and the same case for it.

I bought an iPod clock radio at Target, and it came with all of these adapter plates for all the iPod's. I found that if I don't use any adapter plate at all, then it works great with the case on.

It's this one:

I bought it at Target, but I can't seem to find it there any more. I paid about $35 as I recall.

The only problem with it is that it's not iPhone compatible, when I dock it it gives a message saying do I want to turn on airplane mode to avoid interference. In my case, I consider this a feature since I put my phone in airplane mode when I go to bed anyway and this saves me the trouble... but if you want a compatible iPhone clock radio, you'd need to pay more.
