This actually occurred to me after my original post, but the upgrade for organization (Will it be folders??) could well be driven in part by a Kindle 3 with much more internal memory (or a SDHC slot). The firmware update is due in the 1st half of next year.

Another reason is that all Amazon's major competitors will have refreshed their devices since the Kindle 2 came out. It will also be possible to produce a new device for significantly less than the Kindle 2 and/or add new features for the same cost (e.g. because of processors with integrated EInk controllers).
