Keep at least two manual save files for each character you make, and keep both saves about 20-30 minutes apart from each other. Bethesda games may be known for ridiculous amounts of content, but with it brings a lot of bugs that can result in broken quests and so on. Don't rely on autosave or you are asking to screw yourself over.
Other than that, can't freaking wait. It sounds like they got rid of the stupid leveling system and tossed out just about everything level scaling with you from Oblivion, which is a welcome change in my book.
