Tmo has a case for the 8220. When I ordered the wife's phone, she wanted a case. I asked the CSR and he said they had one available. It came along with the correct charger and incorrect phone. The case has a flap over the top, so we will see how that works for her. She likes to clip them into a pocket in her purse so the phone is right where she wants it...it's the ONLY thing she does that for. :P
EDIT: I have emailed Best Skins Ever to find out when they will have a skin for the 8220.

Reason: Addition
i bought an OEM on ebay. nice fit. i notice some really small scratches on the very bottom of the screen, but not sure if thats from the case or my abuse of the phone
I've got the pearl leather case with the magnetic flap...works pretty good, but when the phone rings I have to take it out and flip the phone open...sort of annoying, but does what it's supposed to do (protect).
I installed the BSE on the wife's phone last night. They even had skin for the skinny little silver edges on the flip part of the phone. Anyways, before putting the skins on, I cleaned it off and looked at it. Holy crap!!! there was a bunch of scratches on the phone. I sarcastically asked my wife how many times she dropped it on concrete and her immediately replied "2". :P So, I applied the skins and it looked better already. It will take a couple of days for the air bubbles to work their way out, but she likes the "grippie-ness" of the skin and the shiny look with the skin on it.
I hope they'll make one like for the Motorola V series. I find the problem with cases is there is a double step involved when you want to use the phone, and it's especially annoying with flip type phones.
