Any confirmation on that? I mean, I would love for that to be the case, however, I am skeptical that will be the case in this day and age.

No, just rumor and speculation.
We know what they are essentially doing with BFBC2. We don't know final specs of the PC version.
We know they are working on BF3 and it is a PC based game.
So, the logical steps and hints on EA/Battlefield forums from insiders is that it will be PC game in the same vein as BF2. It will obviuosly have HD graphics and the basic upgrades from BFBC2, i.e. destruction.
So, the only other areas of speculation are other features, like map sizes, player count, etc. Since every other BF PC game had at least 64 players, massive scaleable maps, and so on, its not to hard to realize this will all be in BF3, if not larger.
Also, keep in mind that Dice/EA hasn't even considered dropping dedicated servers and such on PC games. Dice specifically stated that if the changes they want don't improve the gaming experience, they don't do it. Thus, dedicated servers remain for BFBC2 and will continue to do so in future games.
In fact BF games tend to release mods from respected individuals as part of boosters later in the life. CoD is simply moving to a console only world. Dice/EA want to run in both platforms which is why the BF franchise is basically splitting.
