Your definition of "soon" must be different than mine:

Fedora will support KDE 3.5 until approximately December 2008.
Kubuntu will support KDE 3.5 until approximately October 2009.
Debian will support KDE 3.5 until maybe 2011 or 2012.

I'm expecting KDE 4.2 or KDE 4.3 to be suitable for prime time.
They should arrive in Fedora in May 2009 and November 2009.
That leaves Fedora without support for a prime time KDE for
several months.  There's no such gap with Debian or Kubuntu.

Other distros are also shipping KDE 3.5 alongside KDE 4.x but
I haven't analyzed their timetables.
