It seems unlikely. The Kindle support page doesn't mention anything about this.

The major new software feature- text to speech probably won't show up on the Kindle 1 for two reasons - the hardware just isn't good enough to support it, and they need something to differentiate the Kindle 1 and 2.

Since the web browser is no longer experimental on the 2, it seems likely that it will be moved to the main menu on the 1 as well.

Other than that most of the new features are hardware based.
