Reports are that the plastic backing provides greater reception over the aluminum backing. That said, would housing the iPhone 3g in a leather case hamper or diminish reception?

I don't know if the reception is reported to be better yet, but leather shouldn't hurt much. The concern is the metal backing on the old one. The new one might have more smartly placed antennas that preclude the use of metal as a backing.
By the way -- there IS a new Apple 3G dual dock -- the Apple stores only got a handful of them and they sold out in minutes, and the new dock is NOT offered in the Apple online store (figures). So it's the waiting game to see when the next batch will arrive in retail stores.
