No need for GZIP. GZIP has a failure rate due mostly to network conditions.
Are the EOT files Typekit feeds to IE gzipped or are they natively compressed?

Not really, WOFF is just a wrapper for OpenType Fonts. There is some additional compression in the WOFF files, but Typekit fonts are already served gzipped, which is comparable. We continue to support the features that the browsers support, such as kerning in Firefox.
