BFL ... No-questions-asked lifetime warranty.

When they claim "lifetime" they actually mean as long as they sell the product. Once they stop selling it, all the warranties end.

BFL states that warranty for even end-of-life products is to be no less than 1 year from date of sale (this can be found in the FAQs).    I believe that BFL has stated that a new product line is only when a re-design of the chip is done on a lower die size, so that is obviously a long time away from now.  65nm is still pretty new for a small company to make a custom chip on, and recouping the development costs will most likely take some time.
