The Necromancer will not be in the initial release of Diablo 3, dev says in interview

MTV Multiplayer ‘Diablo III’ Designer Explains Why Necromancer Was Cut, Hints At Return

not too big a deal in my opinion now that I think of it, I dont think the look of the Necro would fit in as well as the more colorful and cartoonish witch doctor, and he made a good point... what new things can they add to the Necromancer?

I am half disappointed, half interested to see what they will come up with next

I think it's funny they mention the 5 character classes again, when they have also said that 5 is just a starting number and they havent decided the end number of classes in the initial relase...

Yep I would agree thats probably what its gonna cost when it first comes out!!!

However in a years time it will cost 40ish for the best version cause they'll have a new expansion out!

Witch doctor practically is the old necromancer so in many ways the necro did make it back. He's got his summons, bone & poison (now with fire), and old curses back. Those were the three trees the necro had anyways and the witch doctor shows strong hints of them.

who cares if necro wont make it back as long as they give us some new classes to play with.
I think that the W doc is close enough anyway

I'm with creepy on this one. I would have preferred the nec but they are very similiar so it is hard to say that the witch doctor sucks. A zombie wall would have been cool on a nec but they work on a Witch doctor.
