Gewaltig viel Input Smile
Here is a summary of what I consider to be reliable Dark Eldar rumours. I'm not saying they are true, or that any other rumours are false, just that this is what I trust at the moment.
Feel free to discuss these and any other rumours to your hearts content, but keep it civil, don't spam, keep background discussions in the background forum, and please, if you want to complain about something, feel free, but do it once, and move on
Previous discussion can be found here, here and here.

There are apparently 23 pages background.
There is supposedly a bit of fluff that says Fabius Bile was taken to Commoragh to be trained by the Haemonculi,
No old models are shown in the new book, but only models in the first wave of release are shown.
Rules
Allows for Kabal, Wych Cult and Homunculus armies
All old units appear in this codex plus there are 3-5 new units
Army-wide special rules:
Night Vision - Acute Senses USR
Strength Through Pain – Most standard Dark Eldar Infantry units will have this rule, although some of the more out there ones will not. The unit gains an upgrade every time it wipes out an enemy unit (3 max). 1st Feel No Pain, 2nd Furious Charge, 3rd Fearless. ICs that join a squad combine their Pain Tokens with the squads.
Combat Drugs - Supposedly features mostly on Wych Cult units. Roll once. All units with the Combat Drugs rule get the same benefit. One result confers a free pain point. 12" Assault result is gone.
Results are:
3D6 pick the highest Run moves
+1 S
+1 WS
Unclear
Unclear
+1 free Pain Token
The "always attacker" rule is now gone.
Weapons:
Splinter Rifle 24" SX, AP5, Rapid Fire, Poisoned.
Shard Carbine 18" SX, AP5, Assault 3, Poisoned.
Splinter Cannon 36" SX, AP5, Assault 4, or Heavy 6 Poisoned.

Generic Wych HQ. Better at infantry killing.
Asdrubal Vect
Can be taken mounted or on foot. It has been said his throne fits nicely in the spot where the sail goes on the new Raider kit. This implies no new model. Personally, I think the new kit would look a little silly without the sail.
