Blizzard already has it available for download on their website, it is a 7.6 GB download for the same price as the retail edition. You can download it right now, it just won't let you play until the official launch. Once midnight hits all you have to do is hit the install button and you are set. I am really excited, I played Diablo II more than any other game in my lifetime and it has been a really long wait for Diablo III.

I am probably going to play as a Wizard to start and build him up as a Battle Mage, but I am going to want to try all the classes at some point.
