Domain forwarding could take months to be introduced and may well be a paid feature; but don't worry, it won't take the search engines too long to pick up your new location.

What will happen in the future is that when someone types in http://iskoblog.wordpress.com into their browser, they'll wind up on your new site with it's new domain.

Fox example, type in http://www.urchin.com into your browser and see what happens. (You land up on one of Google's sites.)

When we launch domain registration and parking, there will also be a forwarding feature which would allow you to forward your subdomain to a new domain.
