No, not yet.

Most likely yes.

I'm waiting for more to be released about it. At a minimum to request any amount of money from me BW needed to release more. While they have cleared somethings up in their posts, not everyone would see those. They need to do a better job there.

I don't feel that subscribers should be paying for this; nor am I pleased that Cartel Coins cannot be used to buy this. I feel that EA slapped the word expansion on this to "justify" charging subscribers.

I'm not pleased that class stories are not being continued; as this is the most exciting part of the game to me.
They aren't charging subscribers ... they are charging everyone. Just happens that subscribers get a huge purchase discount. As a subscriber the expansion will cost less than a music CD with as much - if not more - replayability. IMHO (having btdt) anyone whose RL situation forces them into the conundrum of having to choose between buying a game expansion and buying a CD has other greater priorities that dictate they shouldn't be buying either.
Can we please just have our pre-KotFE SWTOR MMORPG back?

The issue is with worth, not cost.The expansion should actually add a decent amount of content and upgrades to justify the purchase. If this really is just a content patch that Bioware slapped a price tag on because they could, then it should not be supported simply off principle.

No one should give Bioware more money just because they asked for it. Doing so supports bad business practices and basically makes you one of those drone consumers that corporations love so much.

I'll "buy" it if I can use my CC for it. Otherwise, I may buy it once my subs run out, then wait 1month or 2 (depending on the price of the add on when I'll buy it) to resub.
I won't pay a sub AND the DLC in the same time, because it shoule have been free for subs, just like in others freemium I play.

okay, okay but just think, it's only 10 bucks, we are not talking about 100 dolars. you spend more than 10 buck per day

There's actually a very good secondary reason for waiting to buy this. Cause you know that 5 days of early access is really "here, bug test this for us on the live servers all you people who love us enough to forgive us anything" :P
aren't you a little short for a stormtrooper?

The greatest fear of most of us, i think (And if i am misrepresenting anyone's view, i apologize), is that this may lead to the end of the content update that has always been the heart of the subscription worth in the past. This new "Mini-expansion" fits the diameters of almost all content updates minus the level cap raise.

Will pazaak/swoopracing/minigames cost us an additional 10 bucks? Will open world pvp cost us more money? Will guild ships and guild content cost us 10 bucks? I think a lot of people see this as EA opening pandora's box.
