The article also implies that the shadow source will be entirely DDI exclusive. That really makes me wonder what other classes they'll be adding to the mix.

I didn't get that impression. The assassin class will have PHB + Splat -level support through DDI, but I don't think that all of the shadow classes will be DDI exclusive. There is a lot of buzz about the quantity of previews from PHB 3 that we will get from DDI, and I think that we will get some that way. I hold out hope that psionics and shadow will be in PHB 3.

I saw the cover stating it was psionic, divine and primal. After the announcement of them putting the kabosh on Ki, I'm guessing those classes got dispersed to the three power sources.

Well unless the PHB3 cover is just a concept and not true. The PHB3 is Psionics, Divine and Primal. So no Shadow in PHB3. Though yeah, this is just talking about the Assassin and its support, nothing stating about all or anymore Shadow classes in DDI. Most likely PHB4 for the rest.

I also did not get the impression that shadow will be exclusive to DDI.

In fact, at least one published paragon path has the shadow power source (even though it builds off a class with a different power source).
