First of all, 100th post yeaaaaah baby! Only 1,900 until i'm like...in the club
There's this HTC Thunderbolt cases streamline protection with extended battery | Android Community
But i find it more funny than useful. I'd imagine you'd just sit there and look at it and bust up laughing like "i paid for someone else to cut a hole in my case hahahahahahahaha"
But hey, to each their own. Seidio says they're releasing new cases for extended batteries, but we have no news on a release date. So everything's up in the air.

As Captain notes, you can modify a sock case with an Xacto knifeto make it fit your extended battery or pay for one of these. They offer either soft gel or hard "rubber". Waiting for the Seidio cases for the extended battery is starting to feel like "Waiting for Godot". They've pretty much stopped responding to requests about an ETA on them on a previous thread in the Thunderbolt forums so no idea on what to think for them anymore. 
One decent (and available) option for at least scratch protection is this:
HTC ThunderBolt Screen Protector | invisibleSHIELD by ZAGG
I've used them, as have allot of my friends, and they do a great job for scratch protection under normal use, but you're still screwed if you drop your TBolt. But it's a good value for the price and. it covers up mine with the extended battery nicely. It also makes it easier to grip.
I carry my Thunderbolt on my belt in this:
Clip Case Cargo Wide | Nite Ize
It's a bit of a tight fit, but it works for me. You'll probably need to look online to find one that suits your taste and fits the phone regardless since I haven't seen any belt cases that fit the extended battery in any stores (Verizon or otherwise) that I've been to yet.
If you find a better option available, feel free to post it as no one can be everywhere on the internet. Good luck!
