From above:

“I would expect that once the new SAT I includes the writing section you won’t have to also take the SAT II writing.”

Correct; in fact, the SAT II writing will be discontinued after the new SAT goes into effect.

“I heard that once ur SAT II Writing is not bad…ur SAT I [verbal] doesn’t really matter that much anymore. Is it true?”

Generally not correct. However, very high SAT II scores can help if you have a lower SAT and a number of schools (e.g., all UCs) give more weight to SAT II’s than the SAT in determining admission.
