My guess is they're working out the kinks of the new hardware and potentially we'll have a new FCS next year, as there's likely a decent amount of stuff that would need to change on the back end to get this to work.
I can't wait to see the new hardware-- particularly what this "Snapdragon powered Android device" will look like. There are also references to a Power Board, new Motor Controllers, and "still being able to work with old NXT sensors and DC/servo motors", which implies we'll have new motors, new motor controllers, and new sensors to work with. I hope FIRST opens up the electronics like they have with material components.
