It survived a generation transition (from KT to KPW) and several firmware updates so I don't think its going away soon.
I think they don't advertise it because it needs a PC and a bit of computer literacy to work (and the Kindles are generally marketted as standalone devices) and because those of us who care can find out on our own.
Not the way I would go about it but they do try to keep the baseline Kindle experience as simple as possible.
It seems to work for them.
