We'll have to wait and see maybe PowerVR will get someone else to manufacture for them. Lots of rumors of big companies like VIA, Intel etc being intrested. It does look grim tho but you never know.

powerVR are the future, even nvidia know this. they cannot produce fast enough ddr. the tile based rendering method is so much more efficient. good may come of this shut-down though. with the backing of a big company (intel in particular) powerVR may rise to power. nvidia are starting to get more than a bit annoying at this stage - geforce 4 mx anyone?
