quote reply
A few months ago, we unveiled the Battle.net account, our new way for players to log in to World of Warcraft and future Blizzard games, sign up for upcoming beta tests, shop the online Blizzard Store, and more with just one username and password. This was just the first step in the rollout of the brand-new Battle.net; in the future, players will be able to use Battle.net to participate in cross-realm chat in World of Warcraft, create real-life friends lists, communicate across different games, and a whole lot more.

In preparation for the launch of these new features, on November 12, 2009, all current World of Warcraft players will be required to merge their World of Warcraft accounts with a Battle.net account in order to log in to the game. As our way to say “thanks” for taking a moment to go through the process, existing World of Warcraft accounts that upgrade to Battle.net (including those that have already switched over) will receive a brand-new penguin in-game pet -- check for him in your in-game mailbox later this week. Starting on November 12, all World of Warcraft players will need to log in to the game using a Battle.net username and password, and anyone who wishes to create a new World of Warcraft account will need to start with a Battle.net account.

Creating a Battle.net account is simple and free. To merge your existing account with a Battle.net account, visit https://eu.battle.net/.
For more info, check out the Battle.net site or read the FAQ.

When do we get our Penguins!

Also, is it a achievement to get the Pet? Or does it only count towards the pet achievements etc?

Second!

But yeah, I did this alredy when battle.net first came online. Thinking it would keep me better appraised about Blizzard games and guess what, it did. Now where is my SC2 beta key?!

This thread is great, I was getting tired of the "OMG WERE IS MAH PENGUIN?!" and "NOO I DON'T WANT B-NET!" threads that kept popping up.

lol I wasn't the only one thinking this. I didn't even read the post.

Yes there are two paths you can go by
But in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on

Thats just todays date to show when it was last updated with information, if it gets updated again at a later date it'd change to that date.

Yeah that makes sense, I read it as "The 12/10 conversion". Just unlucky with the days then ;)

Is this really true??

There is nothing on the EU Webpage "announcing" this - which is something that I would expect them to do.
After all not too many people read here!
