They have pretty much flat out said that they will not be allowing the race change into a new race/class combination from the start of Cataclysm. They said multiple times that they do not want the first level 85 Night Elf Mage or Human Hunter or Troll Druid to be a race changed toon. They believe it cheapens the achievement and do not wish to allow it. They gave an estimated timeline of "a couple of months" after Cataclysm for this to happen.

I am sure we will probably see the race change service added with the 4.0 patch or more than likely during the "downtime" between Ice Crown's inevitable turn into the land of farming and 4.0. Blizzard is not stupid, they want people to keep playing all the way up until the expac, dropping the racechange service into this time is ideal for them.
