These are for those of you who were asking about what you can customize for your character.
Just so you are aware, these are the options open at level 13. Sockets don't come into play in the beta right now (later part of Act 2 I think) and there was supposed to be enchants or something else included, though nobody is 100% sure now because the "delay" was done to rework this part of the game.
This is the "Forge" where you can build items. The way this works is that you "salvage" any items you find that are better than "white" quality, and they give you materials. Those Materials can then be spent on Forging Armor and Weapons. The items you get to Forge are based on your character, so you can create items for other classes.
The Forge recipes "level up" with you for a few levels. An "Apprentice" recipe that is good at level 1 will level up to about 7 or 8. Note: I said the RECIPE and NOT the ITEM. So you can keep remaking the same recipe over and over as you level and the item will be better, until the next Tier of recipe's open up.
Lastly, you "train" new recipes by paying gold into the Training Bar.
The below shot is your inventory. As you can see, there is a tonne of equipment slots available (13 in total) and as you know, every slot is used to customize your character. The "details" button shows you your overall stats.
This is a picture of your "Skills" Tab, with the Active Skills opened in the window beside it. In Diablo 3, you are limited in how many active skills you can have at any one time by your level. At level 13, you can have two Mouse Buttons equipped and then 2 numbered slots (4 in total).
This below shot is your Passive Skills Tab. As you level up, you can select a Passive Skill that does varying things. You can have up to 3 in total by level 30. What you do is select your skill and then I think it gets locked in for 60 seconds before you can change it to something else.
Here is the main Achievement screen shot.
Here is the "General" Achievement screen shot with Beta Specific stuff on it. I don't know if the "Betamaxed" achievement will carry into Live but it would be awesome if it did.
So overall, how am I liking the game? I really like it. Its great. I am not sure why they are holding it back at this point, but obviously they found some issues with overall customization "depth" for the later levels or difficulty modes that concerns them, so that is why they must be redoing some of the systems.

Pack space is much larger than D1 or D2.
Chest space is now shared between characters, so muling is easier...but to be honest, I sold twice in the first 11 character levels, and never once did I get "Not enough room"...and I pick up everything.
Take that for what it's worth.

You sure didn't pick much up if you didn't have to vendor in the first 11 levels. My bags were always full by 9. Like, to hit level 11 you have to run Skeleton King like 4 times, 2 runs is full bags most of the time.

Wait, seriously?
They have had 12+ (twelve) years to improve graphics and thats the best they have come up with?
lol
edit: And by that, I mean the graphics are a joke. Blizz knows they are a joke and has said all a long that they designed them to be multple generations behind so as to run on all comps (more $$$$).

I was huge D1 fan back when. Then when word of D2 was coming we were all jazzed up in anticipation. It turned out to be pretty crappy in my book but a lot of people loved it. For me I despised the lack of inventory slots, even when you used your Horadric cube to store stuff in. I hated the acts, especially the jungle. That act was so long and tedious that it bored me to death. And the graphics were actually worse than D1. That was unbelievable at the time.

I expanded the heck out of my chest space last night.
You spend gold and upgrade the space, and buy more chest tabs.

Act I was my favorite. Sometimes I reinstall the game just to play through that one act.
As you said, the Jungle was my least-favorite, though I did like the Durance of Hate (not those stupid fking explodey bone fetishes, though).
