Yeah, unfortunately looks like they're going to go with another mindless army of enemies thing rather than one big baddie. From the looks of things, Tony (and possibly Bruce) creates Ultron by accident while attempting to further automate his suits (perhaps he's trying to give Iron Man up without letting The Avengers down or something), and Ultron replicates himself into an army.
Vision is indeed Bettany. Not sure how they'll introduce him (Ultron created him in the comics).
From what I've been able to glean from the scant info that's out there. I think it's a case where since SHIELD is now defunct Tony decides to step in and create an automated force to pick up the slack. With Ultron being a new AI he creates with the specific task of overseeing the project. Not sure how JARVIS ends up becoming Vision but I'm sure there'll be lots of tension between the two AI throughout the film.
The way I see it, either Ultron will create Vision in order to infiltrate The Avengers as he did in the comics, which would be cool because he'd be evil for awhile; or JARVIS won't trust Ultron from the beginning and Tony will continue with the project despite JARVIS' protests and so eventually JARVIS manifests himself as Vision in order to combat Ultron.
We're looking at Spiderman levels of new character creep here though, so everything has to be pretty simple. We've already got Hulk vs. Hulkbuster, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch, Ultron and Vision, plus seven or so other characters to continue to develop.
