A bit more Skrim news...sounds promising:

• Players can earn money by chopping up lumber, and can craft their own weapons
• The tallest mountain in the game can be climbed, but the snowfall gets increasingly heavy as you ascend
• The game will feature 150 dungeons, every one of which are different
• If you're particularly interested in the back story of the Elderscrolls series, you can hunt down all 300 books in the game
• The game will have 18 skill sets, however the Acrobatic and Athletic skills might have been removed for Skyrim
• The skills are each indicated by a constellation of stars, and as they level up can unlock perks, of which there are 280 in the game
• On the console version of the game, the shoulder buttons will each apply to a hand of the character
• The melee combat is apparently very realistic, with the height of the shield being an issue as to protecting your character and judging the distance to your opponent
• There are specific spells that can force characters/monsters/etc to run away or fight for you.
