I do not thing they will make hard-drives obsolete. In order to do that, it would need to be:
1. Fast enough to give information to programs in time to keep up with the CPU
2. Able to write, rewrite, erase, and move information. It has to do it fast enough as well
3. Last more then a couple years...
4. Be used with minimal amount of energy, as hard-drives are used in many battery powered devices.

The next generation of storage will be based on flash memory. They have already developed flash/HDD hybrids where the OS boots off flash memory so it is instant, than all the apps and media is stored on the HDD.
