What exactly is the InfinIty gauntlet and what are its capabilities and limitations?
What do you think of the Infinity Gauntlet in general (as opposed to the story that introduced it for example)?

The infinity gauntlet is an awesome plot device to make Thanos even cooler than he already is, even it's a pretty broken power-up, since it's technically capable of anything. You just need to see the kind of s*** those gems do and imagine what huge amount of power they have when combined. And I'm not talking about destructive potential, I'm talking about the same kind of amount of superpowers as Pre-Crisis Superman, super strength, super speed, super endurance, etc.

I believe the gauntlet was something Thanos made by himself, but the gems were old artifacts protected by several powerful guardians, who Thanos defeated one by one. I can't recall the story very well, only that Thanos kicked a*** in every scene.

Cell: Sacrifice? Hmph, rubbish! On the contrary, it is an honor to become a fraction of my power.

Every gem(infinity gems) on the infinity gauntlet has omnipotence over an aspect. So like one is mind, another is power, etc. When you have all them together there's nothing you don't have complete power over

Then what is the heart of the universe? Off topic but curious.

Here are the things that make up the Infinity Guantlet

Time Gem--Total control over past, present and future. Total control over all aspects of time including time travel; stop, slow down, or speed up flow of time; accelerate or slow down aging, see into past/future and can also be used as a weapon by trapping enemies or entire worlds in unending loops of time.
Space Gem--Travel through space, mostly through teleportation. Able to interfere with the motion of other objects. Allows the user to exist in any location (or all locations), move any object anywhere throughout the universe and warp or rearrange space.
Soul Gem--Observe, attack, steal, manipulate and alter souls, living or dead. The gem is the gateway to an idyllic, pocket-universe. Also used to devolve artificial organisms back into a primitive state.
Reality Gem--Alters reality to anything the user wishes.
Power Gem--Virtually limitless strength, durability, and energy manipulation. This gem contains access to all power and energy that ever has or will exist, and can back the other gems and boost their effects. It allows the user to duplicate almost any physical superhuman ability and become invincible.
Mind Gem--Virtually limitless psionic abilities including telepathy and telekinesis. Backed by the Power Gem, it is possible to access all minds in existence simultaneously

The heart of the universe is pretty much the above but applied to the entire Marvel Multiverse rather than just one Marvel Universe.

The HOTU is God's(TOAA) heart basically. If you manage to somehow get it, you become God, superior to any other entitity in the Marvel omniverse including The Living Tribunal.

The IG allows you control over just a single Universe, unlike the HOTU which extends to the whole omniverse.

What in the flying...
Could you tell me more about the heart of the universe? And a bit on how Thanos lost that time?

The thing with the HOTU is that you canonically don't become God, you just absorb a small portion of its power which already makes you über-powerful. The best(and only I believe) example of this is Akhenaten, a normal human pharaoh who became one of Marvel's most powerful entities(more powerful than even Infinity and Eternity, jeez) when he accessed the HOTU after being abducted by aliens(don't ask).

There isn't much else to what the HOTU is, it's more of a non-canon thing that just happened once, so info is lacking on that thing. And I doubt we'll see it ever again.

Point is, no matter the cheap weapon he uses, Thanos never fails at being awesome.
