Ok...after a little fooling around witht eh game (played a roguelike character till lvl12) i decided i'm settleing for a caster character.
Now i was wondering what armor to wear, and what are the benefits of all types for a castercharacter?

I'd go with light armor coz it doesn't weight much and since you don't have much strenght. I think there isn't any(at least later in the game) difference between heavy -and light armor than the weight. When you master your armor it doesn't encumber you at all.(reads sometimes in the loading screen hints)
You might also consider robe enchanted with shield, not sure how effective.

I play mage/warrior charachter and I went for light. Now I have glass, my armorer is up as well from all the repairing in Oblivion, and my armor all together is 85. Brilliant for a mage.
