Layton Kyōju Chō bunmei A no Isan, translated to Professor Layton and the Legacy of Super Civilization A, has been announced for a release on the Nintendo 3DS next year. The title promises to have the same puzzle-solving that we all know and love coupled with the same charming art style we've come to expect.
Based on the characters revealed in the footage, this is the third and final game in the second, prequel trilogy of games that take place before the first three games in the series. Ominously, this game is also being described as Professor Layton's final adventure.
I remember reading that they expanded into iphone territory with a new series about Layton's son, set far into the future. I know, it sounds terrible to me, too.
The ending of Unwound Future did leave it open for more stories, particularly with a certain letter that was sent at the end - but ambiguous endings aren't uncommon in long-running storylines.

I don't see how the Layton series can go to iOS devices, considering that Nintendo co-publishes the games along with Level 5 (meaning that Nintendo owns part of the IP rights).
Nintendo doesn't own any of the rights, they simply have an agreement to publish the game outside of Japan. It's like how Nintendo has no rights to Killer Instinct just because they published it. Or Ridge Racer 64. Publishing a game has nothing to do with owning rights to the IP. I could give you dozens, maybe hundreds, of examples.
