The New Class is the Wizard, the trailer was just shown at Blizzcon. It has quite a few AOE attacks, some electric moves and an ability that can push incoming magic attacks back at their users (these are just some of the abilities shown and what I could really describe them to be).

Update:

4 of her abilities just announced during the Diablo 3 Character Class discussion:
Magic Missile: Basically a missile of magic obviously much like the WoW Mage ability
Electrocute: Chain Lightning
Slow Time: Bubble (it stays where you put it) that slows time of enemies and of incoming magic spells but you yourself are not slowed.
Disintegrate: Laser beam pretty much that destroys what it touches and goes through enemies hitting ones behind it, the longer the target is being hit by the ability the more damage it does.

Update 2:

3 more wizard abilities just shown:
Arcane Orb:Sends out an Orb of Arcane energy that blows up on contact
Tornado:Sends out a tornado made out of energy that does damage to whatever it hits, seems to pick up and push back enemies
Blizzard: AoE damage basically the WoW Mage blizzard ability

Wait, so does this mean they're not using the sorceress anymore, since half of those ablities sound just like ones the sorceress already has? I'm a huge fan of Diablo and Diablo 2, but I don't know much about 3.... if they're not using the same character classes, then does that mean there's no amazon? :( :(

I do not belive there be a Amazon in the 3rd one since they are making it so every class playable as a male and a female because a male Amazon warrior is not somthing I think we will ever see in Diablo.

Dont know how its not on the site... seeing as the third class that was announced was not the Sorcerer but called the Wizard.

Proof: http://www.blizzard.com/diablo3/characters/

Click the woman in the middle and read the name of the class... the Sorcerer is being replaced by the Wizard class.
