From Apple:
"All the breakthrough technology in iPhone 4 is situated between two glossy panels of aluminosilicate glass — the same type of glass used in the windshields of helicopters and high-speed trains. Chemically strengthened to be 20 times stiffer and 30 times harder than plastic, the glass is ultradurable and more scratch resistant than ever. It’s also recyclable."

See more at 5:20 of this video (link).

If both the front and the back glass are scratch resistant, that would mean, there's no need for protector cases.
