Hell yes! I'm sitting on my first 310% speed mount, and I'm loving it!
We reached the (infamous) 11/12 ICC 25 HC state by end of July, and started doing the achievements for the Glory of the Icecrown Raider meta achievement. Our raid leader, Xester, does an excellent job (thanks dude!) tracking the achievement progress for our raid members, so all raid member gets a chance to obtain the mount.
Now only two bosses remain before we can claim to have the raid content clear: the Lich King in 25 HC, and Halion the Twilight Destroyer in 25 HC. As we're doing the meta achievement right now for half of the raid nights, we decided to attempt Halion first. Hope we manage to slay them both before the Cataclysm, that would be the first time I have the content clear when the next expansion hits.
No news from the theorycrafting/simulation front though, as I still have no beta key, and even then the talents and spell mechanics seem to change on a weekly base, it's way to early to conclude something; all we can do is wait for the 4.0 patch, and enjoy our last months of Northrend raiding.
50k Honorable Kills

I have to admit that I didn't do much PvP in The Burning Crusade, due to playing a class that became relatively gimped in the expansion, and not likeing Arena - at all.
Nevertheless I managed to add the 50000st pair of nightelf ears to my collection this very evening (night elves are always my preferred target, especially hunters and rogues, they deserve no better. Can't attack little gnome girls though, they're so aaaaw, so I tend to just sheep them and leave them alone).
50k honorable kills is also an achievment in WoW 3.0/WotLK, too bad that only the next achievment (100k) will give a title reward (Of the Horde or Of the Alliance).
