I'm gonna suspect castille means the redesign of the paladin and shaman classes, not the Burning Crusade expansion. :w00t:
As for socketed items: I'm gonna suggest it's quite possible that sockets could actually be paid for with itemization points, meaning that socketed items might have fewer stats than non-socketed items, with the expectation that you will be tailoring the rest of the socketed item to match your specific needs.
That obviously doesn't go toward Nobbie's statement that level 70 gear will completely blow away level 60 tier 3 gear. But it is a possibility.
