@all:
I think Alemi makes some good points. The one big thing I'll add is that Blizz stated they were going to merge the Arena and BG ques so that every single person in a particular server type (IE, North America, China, Oceanic, and Euro) will be playing against each other. If this goes through then things are going to be much better--Even if only 10% of the people that do arenas now do arenas post Cata you'll still have instant ques AND you'll probably never face teams more than 5 MMR off of you. I assume the same will be true for rated BG's.

Overall I like it.
