Does anyone know when cases will be available for this, particularly at Best Buy since I have gift cards to there? I don't want to use it without a case cause its gonna scratch a lot. If its gonna take a while then I will just wait till the cases come out in order to get one, or order a cheap case from ebay if they have them on there to tide me over till I can get a better case.
 
Sometime in the next day to 6 months

no one really knows for sure.

i'd bet in the next few days as pre-order though.

You can bet it wont be more than 2 weeks before they are available for shipping from other retailers

it's hard to say. i would assume they'll have at least one type of case when the itouch is officially released...it may not be the particular case that you like. i like the silicon case myself.
 
usually they are released a week or two after the units arrive. big money maker for the stores on the accessories.
