All of these armrests are available at the Scion Central www.precisionmuffler.com and are ready to ship out today. :D
They are all great armrests, it really depends on what fits you the best. And if you want a third cup holder or not.

In my opinion the JJ Products looks the best and is the most comfortable. Has stock looking cloth on it that matches seats. Also bolting it to the seat means you will be able to mount it exactly in the spot that is most comfortable for you! When done right, I think this is the cleanest looking installation.
I bought the Zeta armrest. I was looking for a solid product that would last like an oem product. It is solid and fits like it was from the factory.
I am a big guy and this product is not going to fall apart anytime soon. I think it might outlast the car.
I got the origional one. Am very pleased. had I had a larger budget I would have got the one with the storage compartment .
I took my orange Xb into the local dealer and had an oil change today and the service people were all over the Zeta armrest. They feel that it is what Scion/toyota should have put in in the first place.

The poll should have had none of the above. LOL
There are plans for an armrest that costs under 30 bucks to make in an hour or so.

Here's the post w/pics and the plans for the armres I made for my box. I altered the plans a bit though. I shortened it a bit because it was too tall for my likeing. Just take measurements and pick a height that fits you. But there is a minimum height jst because it has to clear the cupholder, you'll see what I mean when you see the plans. Oh, and I used 1/4 in. plywood instead if the hardboard that he suggests. And I only used small nails no glue and used spray adheasive to install the covering material. Good luck it was pretty easy just cut all the pieces and you'l see how to put them together

Look at the Zeta Storage tech article for comments by "mikochu" regarding his take on the stick shift/armrest issue.
