I use boxwave products for my palm and nuvi devices. I like their stuff and notice that they have one for the iphone... i will maybe pick one up after i see how the device functions without one. This thing is too sexy for a case...

Basically of what synthetic diamonds are composed.

For example, a diamond is a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, while a CZ is 9.5.

Diamonds can still be scratched, but by another diamond. CZ's are almost as hard, and would be difficult to scratch, if these screens were indeed CZ. However I thought I read they were high quality optical glass, which would shatter if dropped?

That actually chimes with the story I heard from a mysterious Apple employee at the 21st amendment bar in San Fran after the Keynote.

I could not imagine ordering and buying an accessory or add-on from a company that has not yet even touched the product.

I think it would be wise to wait until a while after launch before looking for such items.
