2 billion coins has been said before. I think PPC estimated that they will create roughly 100M coins until it becomes too difficult. Yacoin is creating 13-15M coins per year. Unless the rate is too high for it's popularity in future I wouldn't worry about it.
In other news I created a

Other than the actual math the most speculative part of the calculations are the hashrate guesses.
