Looks like they're going to be subclasses, not to worry, they aren't 
going to be replaced.  It's just one more option like eldritch knight.

I'm mixed on this, I always liked psionics in 1e-3e (never played with 
them in 4e and don't remember if they actually came out.) But I 
understand many people don't care for psionics in a fantasy game, 
especially for PCs.

I'm not sure about that "pleasant" part.
