I have a nice leather case from Belkin that I picked up at Best Buy. (It looks a lot like the picture in post #2 above.) Since case choice is such an individual thing, you might want to go somewhere like Best Buy or another store that has a large selection and see what works best for you. A lot depends on how you're going to use your device, where you're going to carry it (pocket, belt clip, in a purse or backpack, etc.), and what you want it to look like. Personally, I've never used the screen protectors and my iPod Touch doesn't seem any worse for it.
