Who knows how good the info is. The only really interesting bits are that you will fight Arthas, and Death Knight will be the only hero class. You will need to unlock it somehow with your regular characters, then he will start at a high level.
This is pure and total speculation, but some people have come up with the idea that the DK will be WoW's version of lotro's moster play - it would be red to both allies and horde. To me this makes a ton of sense. Essentially banning them from regular raids means they don't mess up the current class balance in raids and pvp. It makes it totally optional in terms of regular development of your characters, while putting in a whole other facet of gameplay and a huge time sink for those so inclined. It also opens up some interesting options for BG's - how about 5 DK's trying to defend an artifact against 10 regular players. Also after 3.5 years, it would be very interesting if allies and horde from the same server could play together on their DK's.
