One fear I have (as an amateur) is that film/processing will become much more expensive but DSLR's will still be $2000. The problem for the camera companies to give digital to those whose working system is a ZX-5n and 4-5 lenses. They probably won't drop $2K on a DSLR but won't want a P&S. In my happier moments I believe that this group might be big enough, along with the disposable camera folks, to keep film going as a reasonable price. I could easily believe a scenario, however, where most pros and consumers abandoning film.
