They will probably be around in the same manner that apple are at the moment, by selling multipurpose tablet(s) that also happens to be an ereader rather than standalone ereaders. Sony want to sell hardware, but they are not locked into what type outside of playstations.

On the subject of future hardware, given the way amazon have pushed forward with getting their app onto other hardware and how they are less concerned about profit margins on their own hardware, maybe the next step will be for them to simply start licensing Kindle for other companies to make the hardware.
