Well first off the gear, now with mages you can EASILY just get +spell damadge gear, or max out your int and stam, I went with both. Here is the gear I have on my twink!Head:
Spell Power Goggles Extreme
These are obtained at level 225 engineering, It doesn't take that long to get your engineering that high as long as you follow a guide. If you don't feel like leveling engineering go with Elders Cap of the Eagle.
Spellpower Goggles Xtreme - Thottbot: World of Warcraft
Neck:
Basalt Necklace of the Eagle
I reccomend getting this from the AH, this is the best necklace for mages.

Shoulders:
Berylline Pads
These can be abtained from a quest reward, you can start the quest from a guy in thunderbluff

Back:
Anything in the AH that is of the Eagle, I have not found a good cape for a while...
Chest:
Beguiler Robes
Get them from the AH.

Hands:
Nightsky Gloves or Hotshot Pilot Gloves if you can get them from AH.

Waist:
Defiler's Cloth Griddle
If anyone knows better please tell.
Defiler's Cloth Boots - Thottbot: World of Warcraft
Pants:
Elder's Pants of the Eagle 9/9
Don't get 8/9 or 8/8 because if you are going to put thread on them that is a waist of gold.
Boots:
Defiler's Cloth Boots
I like these for there +run, it can help more than you think.

Rings:
Deadman's Hand and WSG Reward
Deadmans hand isn't worth getting... But if you want your twink to the max I would get it.
Deadman's Hand - Thottbot: World of Warcraft
Weapons:
Zealot Blade with Witch's Finger, or Rod of the Sleep walker.
I use Zealot Blade with Witch's finger, but Rod of the Sleep Walker Is ok I guess.

Now that you get your gear choose your spec:
Fire Spec #1 Fire Ball
WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Mage -> Talent Calculator
I don't know about this one, I made this my self... But good versing Rogues because fire ball gives them a Debuff (If they try to stealth it well just pop them right back out)and with burning sould you wont lose to much casting time when they get to you.
Fire Spec #2 Scorch
WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Mage -> Talent Calculator
I would go more with this one, You can switch it up a lil depending on play style.
Arcane Spec
WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Mage -> Talent Calculator
I like this spec alot, good and simple arcane missile spam!
Frost Spec
WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Mage -> Talent Calculator
I use this one it maxes out frost crits.
Frost spec #2
WorldofWarcraft.com -> Info -> Classes -> Mage -> Talent Calculator
I got confused making this, but it is kiting spec..

Mage twink tips:
USE COUNTER SPELL ON HEALERS, pretty simple but few mages do this.
Help Flag Carrier, with your frost nova and Cone of Cold you should be able to help the FC better than a healer.
Sheep then Ninja cap! I do this all the time, it works well they only have one second ounce the sheep breaks.
When someone is capping the enemy flag and you have nothing to do, RUN TO THE GY AND MAKE SURE THEY DON'T GET TO THE FLAG (use frost nova so they can't iterrupt the person whose capping the flag) !
