As I'm in the i5700 club for the long haul (24 month contract), I've kitted myself out with some bits and pieces to protect the little 'gem' ;-)
Thought I'd post links to the items as I'm very happy with them and thought they may be of interest to others:
LCD Screen Protector for Samsung i5700 Galaxy Lite on eBay (end time 28-Apr-10 15:09:48 BST)
Fits perfectly and is ultra clear - so looks great and feels great (no cheap sticky feeling).
Rubber Silicone Hard Case Cover for Samsung i5700 Black on eBay (end time 14-Apr-10 12:27:17 BST)
This one is really good, first one was damaged in transit but seller was happy to send me a new one after supplying a photo of damage - so good service as well. The case is in two halves that clips together. It is hard plastic with a soft feel (much like the back of the i5700). I doubt it would survive a long drop onto a hard surface - but the phone would be OK
Samsung APCBU10BBE MICRO USB Data Cable Freepost UK on eBay (end time 12-Apr-10 12:21:50 BST)
Think they speak for themselves - but they are exactly as provided with the i5700.
SAMSUNG i5700 SPICA i8910 OMNIA VODAFONE H1 360 BATTERY on eBay (end time 24-Apr-10 19:44:28 BST)
The battery I received was identical, original Samsung item but just older. It came fully charged and works as well as the original.
All in all I paid

- Firstly always my first purchase - a screen protector:
Fits perfectly and is ultra clear - so looks great and feels great (no cheap sticky feeling).
- Next was a case - I've had a cheap flexible rubber case on my Ipod Touch for the last 2.5 years and its served me well but wanted something a bit more 'up-market' (but still cheap to buy).

- I was also after some extra data cables and this guy had some originals:
Think they speak for themselves - but they are exactly as provided with the i5700.
- Any finally as with any smartphone - the i5700 included - battery life can sometimes be an issue (the data cables above help with that as more options for charging in the car/at work etc). But these were so cheap it was worth a purchase (cheap universal mobile battery chargers available on ebay as well).
