Well, pretty much everything has been discussed between zoom and primes. However...
This is really far from the truth. For instance, look at how many prime lenses can be found across the lens roadmaps from different brands: 5/9 lenses on the 2010-2011 roadmap for Samsung's NX system, 5/10 lenses on the 2010-2012 roadmap for the Sony NEX system, and 4/9 lenses on the 2011 roadmap for Zuiko MFT system just to name a few.
Additionally, prime lenses still have plenty of room for growth and advancements. Check out the sub f1 prime lenses announced within the past two years, the recently developed Samyang prime lenses with high IQ at low costs, and the new and highly regarded APS-C mirrorless NX pancakes.
Honestly, in my mind the show has only just begun for prime lenses in the digital era, and I can't wait to see what the lens developers will come up with next.
