An interesting presentation here, summing up the up-to day results of Cassini mission and containing proposals on the prolonged duartions and possible mission finalization:

If you page down to p.19 you'll see a very curious table. It turns out, for instance, that in order to send Cassini out to another Gas Giant, only 5 to 35 m/d delta V is required! (though this scenario is not considered the most plausible).
