There isn't one that will specifically fit your phone and waterproof it while still usable, I would get a good case for your phone, and then buy a otterbox case to lock it in that is waterproof, they make them for PDA devices and should work for this phone

The problem with hard waterproof cases is that you have to take the phone out to use it, and that would be trouble. I would recommend looking for a waterproof softcase that you can use the touchscreen through (preferably with a clear back for use of the camera & a lanyard to tie it to yourself). Iphone cases are too short, you need one for a PDA, camera, or even the playstation portable.

The minimum dimensions for a naked phone would be 12.3 cm tall by 14.8 cm circumference, but I recommend you get a larger one to use with a case. For reference, the Otterbox Commuter case (strong but not waterproof) is 13 cm (5.1") tall & 16.8 cm (6.6") circumference.

Here are some links to cases I have been considering (I'm still holding out for one with built in headphone plug). Please let me know what you think if you get one.
