I deal with databases every day, so this seems like a no brainer. You have an 
old entity that goes away on 12-31-2010. People want to get credit for it. The 
new entities by chance have the same prefix. If they begin to enter the new 
ones before finishing the old ones, the system will go south. They might be 
able to sort out the new from the old based on the qso date, but that requires 
more time on the part of someone, and after all, what's the rush if everyone is 
in the same boat?

That's my understanding.  They can't close out 2010 until everthing is caught up, and then there's some processing to do for end-of-the-year.
 
This is nothing new.  The same thing happens at the end of every year, especially when there's a new entity that will first become recognized, for submission purposes, in the system at the start of the new year (even when it's retroactive to the actual activation date).

Ron,

Just curious as to exactly what this means. Will they not make the change until every Application submitted in 2010 is processed?

As the League has been saying for weeks if not months.
 
Further, don’t expect it for awhile.  I know the League at one point was hoping to have caught up by now, but at the moment, I wouldn’t expect it until the end of February or the beginning of March.
 
Don’t blame the League.  Blame the number of DXCC applications submitted.  I see some in “the queue” online (http://www.arrl.org/dxcc-applications-received) that date to the beginning of October.  My own 40 meter app was submitted (officially) on November 11th (just after the WACOM hamfest, where they were field checked) and at that time, the “wait” was approximately 8 weeks.  Obviously that has changed.
 
It can’t hurt to ask for some of the direct cards, most of those are out by now or will be out soon.  
 
LotW will come.  Hang in there a little longer.

I've gotten QSL's from W3HNK for the PJ4 guys and from direct to PJ7, but | have been holding on for PJ2 and PJ5,6 cards sent direct.  I know some said not to send cards because they would QSL via LOTW. None have shown up on LOTW. I wonder what the hold-up is.
