The number of Bitcoins generated per block starts at 50 and is halved every 210,000 blocks.

That will be an interesting day.

For miners it's almost the same as just increasing difficulty twice.
And I think that 13 months is more than enough for increasing difficulty even more :)

It is merely the equivalent of a 100% increase in difficulty (from an individual miner's payout perspective). Historically, the difficulty has increased by over 100% every 5 weeks or so.
