Sweet!  So some new info and pictures of the upcoming Transformers movie have been uncovered.  First off, the information.  The names of the Autobots and Decepticons have been released along with some of their character's info.

Autobots

Optimus Prime - is, of course, the leader of the Autobots and "The king!" of all the Transformer characters.

Bumblebee - the lovable little underdog of the Autobots, except he now transforms into a Camero and not a VW Beetle.

Jazz - "He's eager to take on the Decepticons."

Ratchet - "Ratchet, who was an ambulance in the cartoon, will appear in a new form."

Ironhide - "The muscle.  A tough soldier who can make any Transformer bust an o-ring just with his stare!"

Decepticons

Megatron - is the leader of the Decepticons.  He doesn't transform into a big gun like in the cartoons.  Instead he now transforms into an 'Alien Jet'.  "He's been portrayed as pure evil but we're trying to get a little bit behind the evil in this movie.  He has a slightly less idealistic version of what he thinks humanity is worth."

Starscream - "Always secretly plotting to dethrone Megatron..."  Starscream was always my favorite character.

Brawl - "An extremely pissed off Decepticon."

Bonecrusher - "The closest thing to a Constructicon in the film."

Barricade - "The hunter of the group - a cop car."

Scorpinok - "Closest thing to Beast Wars or Dinobots in this film."

Frenzy - "A smaller form able to infiltrate spaces - a stealth spy."

Blackout - "The guy who takes out our ability to fight back."

And last but not least I leave you with some pictures.  Unforunately most are just concept drawings and such but a few are real life.  Enjoy!
