I think that's actually the iLevel that people prefer.

You can also purchase item level 359 items in the AH. Constant heroics will get you to 346.

There is no iLevel requirement to get into raids since there is no Looking for Raid tools. Generally you will be expected to have done the following if you are trying to join a raid guild
1. Gotten all the reputation epics. Most specs can buy 2 or 3 ilvl 359 epics
2. The trinket from tol Barad is ilvl 359
3. Everyone who wants to start raiding now should probably have purchased 2 or 3 valor point items.
4. Have those 5 or 6 epics, the rest heroic blues and everything enchanted and gemmed along with the shoulder and head enchants.
I have a character who has never stepped foot in a raid who has ilvl 353 just from doing the above.

If you want higher iLvL easily, you can get it from reputation and BoT trash runs.
Belt of the Ferocious Wolf
can be used for tanking (and is actually pretty good) if you reforge the crit. You can get it from Hyjal along with
Wrap of the Great Turtle
.
Mirror of Broken Images
, which is exceptional for most fights when you expect high magic damage, great for fights where there isn't much magic damage. You can get it from the Tol Barad factions.
Gryphon Rider's boots
/
Boots of Sullen Rock
from the Twilight Highland factions.
BoT Trash run drops include:
Heaving Plates of Protection
Crossfire Carbine
Soul Blade
Almost everyone should be able to join a PuG'd BoT trash run, you can even make one yourself. Just make sure that you've got 'round 3 CCs
EDIT: Missed Azrile's post <.<

well if you can get lucky then maby a 25 man guild is recruiting your specific class, you can prolly scoot by with 340-45 ilvl. otherwise take the following steps
- Get all your rep epics, thats 2-4 359 ilvl peices
- Run heroics and a 346 in every other spot
- Get the Tol Barad trinket
- Get a pvp weapon (if melee dps)
- Get the VP relic, youll have enough for that after just 10 days of doing the daily heroic
With these steps you will easily be able to get 350 ilvl with only running heroics, also check the AH and see if there are any epics you can buy cheap, i got the plate dps crafted belt for just 2K. Also if you have a gathering proffesion try and save up the mats for crafted gear
