 In a TV special shown to promote STIII (I don't remember the title),
Lenard Nimoy said that Hunter was replaced by Shatner because Hunter
had moved on to other commitments.  He seemed to suggest that the
delay between "The Cage" and the OK to start filming the series is
responsable for this. 

 As for Number One switching rolls, that has to do with the network
dodo.  They did not like a woman with that much power, so Roddenbury
gave those powers to Spock. I guess you could say that Spocks roll
was switch too.
