Could anyone give me the lowdown on the priest archetypes?

Today i pre-ordered AoC and i'm pretty much set on going with one of the priest classes since i enjoy playing support. During the years of playing, i always found myself lacking the skill to be a really good offensive fighter in PvP, but i do a decent job supporting others. So here's the hting... there are like three priest classes!?!
I even read somewhere that there might be a fourth one, so i'm way lost here. Could anyone of you guys give me some quick pro's and con's, which one do i choose and why? I realize there are several questions that needs to be answered - for example what my playing style is like and such - but i would be interested in hearing your thoughts on the priests. Why would you choose to go with them?
Thanks!

Almost all heals in the game are "Heals over time" and area based so you don't have to worry about micromanaging health bars (So I'm told anyways, I'm not in the beta).
Bear Shaman: Likes to melee with big 2 handed weapons (I believe). The more he melee's the better his heals become.

Priest of Mitra: The most "healing" oriented version, the more he heals, the better his damage (spell) output becomes. He also has several ways of "Crowd control" as well, more than the other 2 healers I believe.

Tempest of Set: This is the druid, stormcaller, and Scion of Set all mushed together as one. Sorta the reverse of the Priest of Mitra, the more spell damage this one does, the better the healing becomes. One of the best "AE" damage classes in the game apparently.
