AMD has already stated there are no planned socket updates until 2015-16.
yeah. thats really something to like about amd. as more games make use of extra cores, amd's might finally find a place in gaming once again.
(nothing touches price for performance of the unlocked phenoms of yesteryear )

The world of APU/ARM chips are really having a quick turnaround. I could see that being updated in 2014. You seen a roadmap of this?
no, just chatter that FM2 had at least one more update. FM1 dead.
i wonder why its so hard to find a good mITX FM2 board with on board hdmi? those would make great htpc's or budget lan party boxes

A good mATX, how about ANY fricking iTX FM2 board.
Seriously, an APU is a small form factor build. I do not understand why you would want an APU on a full size ATX board unless it is an HTPC/Media Server with like 12 HDDS in RAID 10 pairs. IDK.
For my FM2 iTX build I had to wait for the damn thing to come off of backorder from Amazon. NewEgg or anywhere else didn't have the MSI board I wanted. Only thing that was available was the FM2 iTX ASRock FireRock.

Another thing new PC gamers/builders forget is that Intel was in AMD's position before the C2D.
AMD first put the memory controller on the die itself.. Intel followed 2 years later.
AMD first put 2 cores on a die.. Intel followed 3 years later after HT was failing.
