EIGRP's future at Cisco?

I know in probably in the minority here, but I really like EIGRP. Quicker to converge, more complex/detailed metric, doesn't have the somewhat restrictive "area" concept.

Anyway, I noticed in the IE3400 switch, which just got L3 routing support in the latest update, they included OSPF but not EIGRP:

Has there been any kind of internal roadmap I'm unaware of where they are de-emphasizing EIGRP? I don't doubt the IE3400 will get it eventually, it just seems odd OSPF was included first.
