you can use iphone cases
I just ordered one yesterday, but it hasn't come in yet, so when it does, then I'll let you know how it goes!

I'd like to update what I said in my last post about the Melkco iPod touch case. I've now been using the case for several weeks and am really happy with it. I use the iPod heavily, carrying it around in various backpacks and purses, and yet the case still looks new. The leather is wearing gracefully, as leather ought to do.
I pair the iPod with an Apple wireless keyboard (a match made in heaven) and was thrilled to discovered that the Melkco case doubles as a stand to hold the iPod up at a nice angle. If you flip open the cover and snap the magnetic latch closed 'backwards' like this, the case will keep the iPod upright. I love it!
Here are some photos:

Here are the iPod and keyboard packed up for travel. The slip case for the keyboard is one made by SFbags.com.
And here they are in action.
Another bonus of this case is that when it's held open, the flap on the left provides a bit of privacy if you are seated very close to someone else, as you might be on a plane or train. The flap obscures one side while my right hand blocks the other.
Also, the case makes the iPod very easy to grip onto when I'm walking around with it out (for example, while grocery shopping and using a list app on the iPod to check off which groceries I wanted to remember to buy). The bits that extend off of both sides act like handles in this regard, making it extremely unlikely that the iPod will ever slip out of my hand.
Sorry for the bad photo. I didn't feel like spending too much time on it:
One final benefit seems to be protection from dust getting under the glass. The case covers the edges of the glass very well, so dust is less likely to get in there.
Anyway, I highly recommend this great little case!
Quick question - I have heard that some of these cases extend over the edge of the keyboard so that is is tricky to input a letter on the edge, like the "P" or "Q". Is that true with this case? I am looking for some sort of book case.
I'm going to be getting the Verve folio ( I think that was it) today or tomorrow, so I'll post some first impressions soon
