There's been no announcement of anything.
I think that it's likely that the next kindle
will support drm-free ePub, and that some books in the Kindle ebook store when downloaded for the new kindle that supports ePubs will be in an ePub format.
Essentially, I expect Amazon to add ePub support to their existing Topaz and Mobipocket support. It will be pretty much invisible to the customer what format file they receive. It's just that newer Kindles with newer ebooks will display fancier formatting.
I don't expect that Amazon/Kindle will ever support Adobe Digital Edition encrypted ePubs.
