Ophelea from, Camelot Warcry, wrote up a "Housing Review from E3", with a little bit on the Trials of Atlantis mixed in, you can read her full report at this link, for now here is a sample:

There is no recall to your home, but you will find teleporter merchants to get you home. Also, the ability to sit and lie down may not make it with the housing, but you can be sure it will with the expansion. Also, coming soon after the expansion will be porches with vendors. A crafter will be able to sell his wares through this vendor when offline.
