If TM was still in the Arms tree I suspect 75% of the warriors around would be specced MS / Flurry.:)
I think Devastate will be an excellent talent. I'm reserving judgment on the other two 41-point talents. 10 seconds is an extremly short period of time; most instant attacks have 5 or 6 second cooldowns, and "next-strike" abilties are governed by weapon speed. Slam suffers from the limitations of being a "cast" spell: it requires the warrior not to move, it can be interrupted by damage, and even if you improve it with talents its subject to global spell cooldown. In my experience Slam is an ability that sounds good in theory, but is terrible in practice.
On the other hand Improved Disciplinesn is nice and the talent that causes Rend or Deep Wounds to increase all melee damage done to the target by 5% is amazing.
