They'll probably get there eventually, but considering that CFLs are only just now starting to become legit replacements for some incandescent bulbs---the light quality in a house that went all-CFL during the first big pushes a few years back is appalling---I wouldn't hold my breath.

Except with incandescent bulbs banned in the EU, there's now a strong economic incentive to build cheap, good and efficient replacements. Mind you, I'm not sure banning them outright is the way I'd have done it. (I'd have taxed the environmental impact per amount of light emitted and lifetime)
