It's interesting that nobody seems to have mentioned the Leica handgrip.
I use them on my M8s and get on very well with them.  I went for them as 
I originally had handgrips on my M6TTL and then had the winder M, so the 
handling was broadly similar.

Being a fat-fingered so an so, for me, the extra body thickness of the 
M8 is a bonus.

Cheers
