Which is in the 'shop' menu now.

To me it reads like you get the one boost with wod, by preorder you get 
that now.

You can $buy any other boosts and professions you care to arrange, but 
since you can get one with pre-order why the hell not get it as well?.
   The boost is free or wod is free-ish, depends how you look at it.

"Characters level 60 and higher will also receive a skill level boost to 
their primary professions." Note 'profession>s<'. Oh yeah, I select to 
instant skillup on mining. I think not.

On the other hand, depends how much of a rush you are in.
A lvl 1, select professions->90 $boost, then another '$boost' 90-90 to 
get the professions to pandamax, you could do that now.
I wonder if that would break anything? Give Blizz $, no, nothing wrong 
here. :-)

  From my own keyhole view, and therefore a good chance not majority.
  Lower level items are in for a market shakeup the result depends what 
people decide to do and how much they want to pay. The economy will 
likely transform from deep and somewhat long term to narrow and ephemeral.
It will probably be more barter for top level items and time rather than 
trickle-down and work-up AH.

The more that love the endgame so much they are prepared to $pay not to 
play anything but endgame the less attractive it is to anybody else.

  If endgame is the great majority, thats Democracy, or maybe 
$Plutocracy, or $Capitalism, or the usual random outcome mix.
