Sony are now after avoiding bankrupt(console department)y. The ps3 was a disaster and they won't be repeating that again, but maybe they will, NGP is a step in the wrong direction yet again. Microsoft seems to have learned the same lesson. THis is why their next systems aren't releasing until 2013-2014, and why nintendo can afford to jump to the next console gen much sooner than them. They overstepped their comfort zone, now they will lag behind. In just a few months time nintendo will have the most powerful home console and microsoft/sony will be riding the dying wave of their 2005-2006 hardware for up to 2 years after. How humiliating.

But there's only one console dying right now.
I expect Sony and MS to announce their next consoles very soon.

PS3 and Xbox360 will be "dying" as well once support for 3DS, NGP and N6 starts to gain steam and first party studios start to develop games for PS4 and Xbox 3.
Do you expect a 2013 release? I think late 2013 sounds reasonable.

who knows, but realize these companies start working on their next console the minute the release their current one.

Sure. 2013 would be enough time to recoup more of the PS3 / 360 losses but still early enough to avoid too much of a headstart for Nintendo. In the end it will come down to a mix of software sales, competition, technological advancement and profits. I doubt any company will sell their console at a big loss this time so it will be less "how much power can we throw in there?" and more "at which point can we provide a substantial enough upgrade at a reasonable price?"

Maybe from MS, but Sony is all about power and Technology. The way I see it, don't release new consoles if its going to be just a simple upgrade.
