There is no certainty that KF8 will render anything obsolete (or even be really popular), and Amazon's said that content will work on all devices:
(From the KF8 FAQ)
"Q: Will I have to provide two versions of my titles going forward?
A: No. The upcoming updates to our Kindle Publishing Tools will take care of this for you. KindleGen 2 will convert your content so that it works on all Kindle devices and apps. You will be able to preview how your title will look on the range of Kindle devices and apps using Kindle Previewer 2. "
And we also know better than to base purchasing decisions on what MIGHT happen in the future.
