I don't think the general size of the beast will change much, as having space for 2 large CPUs with heat sinks + 3 full sized PCI cards + 4 drives sort of sets the tone there. I suppose it could get a bit smaller if they went with SSD from now on but even then that might only make it shorter as opposed to less deep. The case design is due for an overhaul by normal standards, but I think it's been so successful that they're taking a "why fix it" attitude. Also it's become almost iconic in a way so there might be some brand thinking behind that also.
