Article on the FPGA with ASIC chip versus ASIC with FPGA chip debate. The two most significant quotes are the following:

Those sentiments (that ASIC chips with embedded FPGA will prevail) echo comments by Cisco Systems Inc. engineering manager Bill Harris, who said at FPGA '99 that his company needs ASICs more than programmable logic.

In addition, PLD companies must amass cores and SoC expertise while ASIC companies have the simpler task of absorbing FPGA capabilities.
"Not to minimize that, but [programmable logic] is more easily acquirable," Selburn said. "The PLD companies are just kind of floundering with this, and it's going to be more difficult for them to approach the SoC market."
