The prevailing wisdom on this issue is that the guts of the PS3 will be able to handle any changes, and that they will be easily implemented because it is a computer.
This is not true for the dumb-box consumer electronics, however. Those with old devices will have to buy new ones in order to take advantage of most of the features on future releases.
Personally, I forsee major issues for generation 1 blu-ray players when the ICT is implemented in 2010 which enables HDCP.
