Ok, so I know the standard Powerjolt works with the 3G, my question is whether the SE version (low profile with coiled cord) works. On Apple's website, it lists the Powerjolt as compatable with 3G, but for the Powerjolt SE, it doesn't show the 3G. It seems as though these two chargers would be essentially the same, minus the cord, so there shouldn't be any problems, but I wanted to hear from someone who has actually used the product and can verify it works with 3G. Thanks!

Griffin verified that the SE is 3G compatible.
 
I just plugged mine in and says i won't be able to send or receive calls while this is plugged in. Any idea why? (i have the SE model)

It only says if that if you choose to put it into airplane mode. If you say no, you will still be able to make, and receive calls like normal.

The only reason it says this, is because that product lacks a specific chip, required by Apple, to prevent the phone from saying this.
