They are the next generation of APUs, which uses Steamroller CPU cores for improved IPC, and GCN architecture for the GPU for Mantle support and improved power and power efficiency. It also uses HSA to have the GPU and CPU uses the same pool of RAM more efficiency. Slated for release January 2014

Kaveri is the new class of APU, this will be the 3rd Generation of bulldozer cores name it Steamroller

 
keep in mind that gen one was the FM1 (32nm) apus, and gen two is the FM2 (32nm) apus
 
Kaveri is the first FM2+ class line and they add (in other words) a new way of build apus
 
they also are the first ones built on 28nm (like the big gpus) allowing a NEW class of fusion cpu/gpu  :D
 
this is APU gen 3 

APU = A10

Should I wait for the fm2+ motherboards or get an am3+ motherboard?

Is am3+ dead?

Will AMD stop using am3+ and start to make their non apu cpus on FM2+?

They don't have any new FX (AM3+) CPU planned for next year, but that could change. Much like they changed their GPU plans 5000 times :P
