Don't get your hopes up. The map will probably remain the same size, due to system limitations of the PS3. The PS4 is much more powerful a machine than the PS3, so its version will have a bigger map, but ours on the PS3 will probably not change.
I'd sure like bigger maps. 800x800 blocks is just silly small, especially when playing survival island seeds. Not to mention the nether is about 4 times smaller than the normal map, so we get boned by having really tiny nether maps.
The reason that the ps3 version of the game has smaller maps is because the ps3 andXbox have different operating systems compared to PC so they will never be infinite world up side is you will vertually never lose your house and have to set up somewhere new unlike PC so if you want intimate worlds then we should probly wait for ps4 and xbox1 to get mc I am guessing they will have bigger maps and or intimate maps unlike the current ones but you can
