WoW Token changes .. now here
Blizzard posted information about changes coming to WoW Tokens soon (already rolled out in the US):
The goblins of the Bilgewater Cartel have a golden opportunity for you, friend—introducing a new way to use your WoW® Token. It’s just as easy as ever, but now when you use gold to buy a WoW Token from the Auction House in certain regions, you can then choose whether to convert it into 30 days of game time or Battle.net Balance*. You can use Battle.net Balance to buy services like World of Warcraft character transfers, digital products like pets and mounts, and even purchase in-game items for other supported Blizzard games you play.
Please note: this new feature is available now in the Americas game region, and will be rolled out to players on European servers soon.
Buying a Token is simple: just visit the Auction House and use your hard-earned gold to purchase one of the WoW Tokens put up for sale. Once the Token arrives in your in-game mailbox, right-click it to add it to your bag, then right-click it in your inventory. You’ll then be able to choose whether to add 30 days of game time or add Battle.net Balance (12.99 EUR / 9.99 GBP; currency and amount varies by region) to your Battle.net account.
For more information, check out our Battle.net Balance support page and WoW Token support page.
*WoW Tokens can only be redeemed for Battle.net Balance in the currency associated with the registered Battle.net account address. Other restrictions apply.

This is now live in European realms, with a slight change:
Q: How much game time or Battle.net Balance do I get by redeeming a WoW Token?
A: You’ll receive 30 days of game time or 13 EUR / 10 GBP (amount varies by currency; currency is based on registered Battle.net account address) in Battle.net Balance when you redeem a WoW Token.

...and presumably related to all of this is the very high price of WoW tokens on the AH at the moment.
165K last night on Lightbringer! (which is very handy for time-poor players like me, that still like to buy flasks and pots etc)
