Kensington have announced a passive car mount which amplifies the iPhone's audio output x2. It's designed to support naked iPhones or those in a case.

More details here.

Not the TomTom mount we're all awaiting perhaps, but a more cost-effective solution perhaps (and essential for Australian iPhone GPS drivers who've just learned unmounted phones are to become illegal to use!)

The spec suggests the amplification may be using a sound canal type acoustic speaker rather than powered amplification in a similar way to Griffin's Aircurve dock.

The mention of rubber inserts fits as there would be some physical coupling between the speaker ports on the bottom and the acoustic speaker as does the 'no added battery drain'.

A novel idea if it works.
