Here's how i did it. This technique takes care of moving the text and detail text labels appropriately to the left:

@interface SizableImageCell : UITableViewCell {}
@end
@implementation SizableImageCell
- (void)layoutSubviews {
    [super layoutSubviews];

    float desiredWidth = 80;
    float w=self.imageView.frame.size.width;
    if (w>desiredWidth) {
        float widthSub = w - desiredWidth;
        self.imageView.frame = CGRectMake(self.imageView.frame.origin.x,self.imageView.frame.origin.y,desiredWidth,self.imageView.frame.size.height);
        self.textLabel.frame = CGRectMake(self.textLabel.frame.origin.x-widthSub,self.textLabel.frame.origin.y,self.textLabel.frame.size.width+widthSub,self.textLabel.frame.size.height);
        self.detailTextLabel.frame = CGRectMake(self.detailTextLabel.frame.origin.x-widthSub,self.detailTextLabel.frame.origin.y,self.detailTextLabel.frame.size.width+widthSub,self.detailTextLabel.frame.size.height);
        self.imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
    }
}
@end

- (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
    static NSString *CellIdentifier = @"Cell";

    UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:CellIdentifier];
    if (cell == nil) {
        cell = [[[SizableImageCell alloc] initWithStyle:UITableViewCellStyleSubtitle reuseIdentifier:CellIdentifier] autorelease];
        cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryDisclosureIndicator;
    }

    cell.textLabel.text = ...
    cell.detailTextLabel.text = ...
    cell.imageView.image = ...
    return cell;
}
