...that my hunter is no longer considered my main.
I have leveled 2 hunters to 80, and now that my second is 80 I'm just not willing to go through the same old gear grind yet again. I will continue to use him to farm gold, but my pally is going to become my main. Having had 4 80s, I know how much faster tanks gear up, so I'm leveling a pally tank. It's quite fun =)
However, I will continue to frequent the hunter forums, and I am still very excited to see what changes cata holds for hunters.
Tankadin here I come!

Good luck with your paladin tank, I had a lot of fun gearing up my alt. Actually I'm the other way around, went from a paladin main to a hunter main. I'm actually making another hunter on another server.
The initial fresh 80 to ICC ready hunter did blow chunks, but after you get past that hurdle it was a ton of fun for me (still is). I continue to contribute tons of damage and top the charts on the ICC runs I go on. Though tanking is nice and fun, I find dps to be less stressful and more fun than tanking.

The best part is: As a paladin you still can roll on hunter loot!

Yeah, I'm sure that once my pally gets geared up I'll go back to working on my hunter. But I'm really enjoying leveling my pally...tanking on him just continues to get easier and easier. Between consecration and holy shield I generally do about 70% of my group's damage. I never thought that as a level ~40 I'd be pushing 400 dps, aoe or not, because that's just ridiculous. Yet I am.
And I thought DK tanking was easy.

Yeah, definitely, especially ranged dps. You can just sit back and relax. Have fun on the pally btw.

Yeah that's true. But as I'm enjoying tanking on the pally immensely, I'd just as soon have my dungeon experience be more intense and have insta-queues =P
I don't think I've waited for than 2-3 minutes on him for a dungeon ever. And he's level 41. I love it.

Technically you can roll on ALL loot (offspec). Since paladins can be tanks, dps, and heals, and we have the top of the food chain plate armor proficiency, we can wear/use almost everything.
Cloth ---> Offspec heals
Leather Agi ---> Ret
leather SP ----->Heals
Mail Agi ---> Ret
Mail SP ---->Heals
Plate DPS ---> Yes pls
Plate Tank ---> Win
Plate SP ---> Generally you are on the only paladin in a 10 man ICC that can use it.
I geared my alt paladin so fast it was rediculous. I have more healing plate gear sitting in my bank than I know what to do with it.
