I don't think this is true. What I suspect is Adobe will just make their Digital Editions API more robust and handle PDF reflow better. PDF has a lot of built in features (text entry, annotation, security, etc...). I don't see PDF going away.
It's also a format they own and they will fight hard to keep that a dominate format.

Though I would not mind if PDF did go away.
