So once I can no longer use 3.x.x
Why not?
Because it will eventually be dropped from all repositories and new hardware might necessitate a more up to date distro.
I have high hopes that someone might start a fork from the main KDE stream and continue to support KDE 3.x.x. Sadly I myself have not got the skills needed. :-(
Have you ever used KDE 4.1.3? Haven't you noticed that no one wants to maintain KDE 3 or fork it?

Have the devs forgotten the _visually impaired_ and are now telling them to look elsewhere?
This is generally true for free / opensource software. This is an area where I have always given credit to Microsoft. Of course, MS sells to schools, organisations, etc. where the software must conform to certain standards on usability etc. and hence they pretty much have to make their software work for the disabled. This is not something the KDE developers need to bother with. They're not selling anything, after all.
