He never actually said the 80gb would be phased out. He mentioned the main model will be the 40gb "worldwide", but it could've been phrased like that because it is the only model in all territories. The EU only has the 40gb.
However, if it is being phased out, it seems rather stupid to me. The 40/80 gb combo was great, much better than the 360 Core/Premium. The 40gb still has everything devs need to make great games (HDD, Blu-Ray, etc.) and only lost unnecessary features that people who don't want don't have to pay for. They should still provide the option for those extra features should people still want to pay for them.
What if my ps3 breaks in a few years? Will I not be able to play ps2 games ever again?
