Knowing how WoW likes to give everyone a clean slate on new expansions, they'll probably find some way to get rid of them or just not make them work past 80 somehow. No clue on what they have it as in the beta though.

Why not just trade them in now?

Honor resets with every new season. OP probably wants the honor to buy gear quickly as soon as Cata hits.

I'm not sure, Saturo. From wowwiki:
No honor point reset in Wrath of the Lich King

On September 23rd, Eyonix announced that, "In order to make the transition from The Burning Crusade to Wrath of the Lich King flow as smoothly as possible, all accrued honor points will be reset at the launch of the expansion."

However, on November 19th, Bornakk basically retracted the honor point reset, "However, many players would still be surprised by an Honor and token reset as it isn’t something we’ve done in the past. As such, we've decided to not reset Honor or tokens upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King."
I don't pvp much, and I certainly don't go out of my way to spend honour, and I haven't seen any resets in Wotlk. My shammy still has the measly few honour points she accrued back when I experimented with BG leveling about oh... 1/2 year ago?

Honor isn't a big deal to farm anymore anyway, not with random bgs in play. Even if we get a total reset, I don't see it being a huge deal.

Well, one of those PvP thingies reset each season. I honestly don't PvP even nearly enough to know which one. :D

They got rid of the bg tokens after the last talk of a reset, so I have no idea how they'll handle the BoA honor tokens asked about in the OP.

Only one of the linked honour tokens is boa, so I assumed it was Loridon's intention to use it on the same toon that has the BG tokens right now... If I'm mistaken I'm sorry, the question makes a lot more sense if it's about the boa aspect.

It's not just that the honor tokens from Wintergrasp are BoA; they're also unlimited in the amount you can carry, unlike the honor tokens you get for converting arena points or old battleground tokens. So people could really stockpile honor if they wanted to!

Arena points resets every season not honor.

I asked because I have still alot of the old bg tokens,2281 stone keepers shards and 441 wintergrasp mark of honor.I dont need them now.
Even when I dont need honor I do sometimes bg's because I just like that to do(thats why I'm so excited about rated bg in cata).so I already need to buy alot epic gems because I hit the honor cap.

If I can save them I want to use them for the first lv85 pvp sets because you can always buy that with only honor.

Well it's possible someone can check on beta for you, but I doubt it's implemented yet. They're not letting them play to level 85 yet.

I think its the Arena points that get reset each season. Not honour points.
