You have 3 options in WoW at this point: 1) gear up your 70s, 2) make/save gold, or 3) level up alts. All the work you put into the first will be completely worthless when WotLK comes out. Working on the second will be hugely devalued when WotLK comes out. Working on #3? That's something that you'd have to put the same time and effort into later when the expansion comes out. Pretty obvious to me from an ROI (return on [time] investment) perspective.
Even with option 3 you are screwed too because what they will do is decrease the xp required to lvl 2 months after WotLK comes out. I wanted to make a new too so i made my hunter. I get him to lvl 60, a week later i find out that the xp required is now reduced. So all that work that i did i could have cut in half. So maybe get all your alts to 20 because they might keep the 1-20 xp range the same.

They say that your geared shouldn't get replaces with lvl 70 greens when it comes out. They are aiming for lvl 75 to replace your purples with greens. I think that they realized that everyone got pissed that the best purple in the old land was replaced with a green from the first quest.
