Another Baldur's Gate coming, at some point
Spluff:
I could be wrong, but I heard it was the opposite (though Bioware did make the engine). Black Isle was just the producer, who helped out occasionally.

You've got the names mixed up there.
Bioware did indeed develop the Baldur's Gates, and Black Isle produced them. Black Isle developed the Icewind Dales.
Alex C:
Obsidian doesn't deserve all the hatin' they get. NWN2 was pretty decent even if it is a bit of a mess technically, and at this point that's not even anything a decent pc won't fix. KOTOR2 was imo better than the first right up until the ridiculous hackjob of an ending, and that was as much LucasArt's fault as anything. Obsidian definitely has a good game in 'em somewhere, and a new BG could very well be it.
Not that I'm holding my breath, mind you.
Dimmukane:
People keep forgetting how good Mask of the Betrayer was. Obsidian can definitely handle it as long as they aren't pressured to release too early. CDProjekt would probably jump at the opportunity, but they're somewhat untested. The Witcher was divisive, and everything else in their portfolio is...The Witcher.
PizzaSHARK:
They might not botch it too badly, but I don't see them making NPCs as good as Minsc and Cespenar. I think calling it Baldur's Gate will be misleading, too, since the Bhaalspawn saga was definitively wrapped up with Throne of Bhaal.
