After Blizzcon first announced it, Amazon and another online site had it set for Nov 2010.

It will absolutely not slip to 2011. ATVI is banking on Cataclysm and Starcraft II to set the pace for their 2010 earnings, as made evident in the most recent earnings call.
My bet is on first half 2010. There have been statements floating around the shareholder meetings that alluded to two major releases from Blizzard in the first half of the year. Starcraft II has long been confirmed to be one of them, and we all know Diablo III barely qualifies as alpha stage at present. Guess what that leaves?
Second half of 2010 is still a possibility, but given what we know about the timing of the development cycle of Cataclysm (which began even before development on WotLK) and what we saw at Blizzcon, it's safe to assume that Cataclysm is much farther along at this stage than WotLK was when people started getting antsy about its release. I absolutely expect Cataclysm beta before the end of the year, or very shortly after, with release 3-4 months later. That puts it in March or April.

Blizz also stated that they were working on Cataclysm before WotLK even came out.
Whereas for WotLK, they waited a bit after BC to start on it.
Since Blizz said Cata would be out before Blizzcon, and Blizzcon is SUPPOSEDLY going to be in late July of 2010, I'd put a Cataclysm release anywhere from March - July 2010.

It is a hoax. the only release date you should believe is the one Blizzard puts out on the official WoW site.

Aye, after Blizzcon, Amazon and one of the other game pre-order sites had it set for Nov 2010.

At BlizzCon, and multiple times after that, Blizzard had stated that they started work on Cataclysm immediately after launch of Wrath.
What they were probably working on was getting the maps re-designed and whatnot so that they could have something to show at BlizzCon itself. From this, and along with what other have already said here, I figure it'll be a 2010 showing.... which also goes with their intention to release a new expansion every 1.5 years or so (totally wish I could find the source again so I don't look too crazy for having said that last part).
