Somehow, I think Sony will find a way to re-integrate PS2 compatibility into the PS3 platform AFTER PS2 hardware production stops.
As for when that will be is anybody's guess. Sometime after PS2 hardware sales begin to flatline, keeping it in production is not longer profitable and soft development slows to a trickle, but that could still be years from now.
It still seems very unlikely that Sony would just let the entire platform and the thousands of softs that were published for it stay stranded. A PC emulator hardly seems impossible in the future, but an emulator on the PS3 obviously makes more sense.
I'm hoping I won't have to buy a replacement PS3 for the 60GB I'm using, but eventually I'll switch it out with a low power, low profile redesign when they are introduced. Probably won't happen for a good 2-3 years though.
