The future of 10speed 105 group?

Shimano announced 11 speed 105 group some time ago:
Shimano 105 5800 2014/15 groupset - first look | Cyclingnews.com

What's going to happen to the current 10 speed 105 group? Will it go out of production, or there'll be two 105 groups at the same time?

This is silly, Sora and Tiagra are still 9 speed, and there's even Claris and 2203, and I think Claris is 8 speed? Are they going to migrate Sora and Tiagra to 10 speed or?

I was thinking of getting a full 105 group before it goes 11 speed, so I'm trying to catch the best moment while it's still in online store (bike24.com for instance.).

Though, I must say I went to a LBS today and took at the 10 speed 105, actually mostly at the lever, hm, shifter pad is plastic? Maybe I'm just too used to my 1st gen Veloce ergos which don't feel like I'm going to brake the with my fingers, but on the other hand I used to have Xenon 9 speed ergos, they where all plastic, and where practicaly indestructible...

No love for 10 speed anymore?
Where is this world going to? Heh

Ideas, comments, rants, roumors, please!
