I would guess that the vent stepper motor has died or malfunctioned. The stepper motor is the little motor that moves the flaps inside the vent system that direct the air to various vents.
Mine has been intermittant for a while. It tends to get stuck and won't send air out the panel vents. After manually telling it to go to defrost (and making sure it gets there), it will usually correctly send air to the vents. For what it's worth, the ducting is laid out so the first duct is to vents, then floor, then defrost. So if it is on the fritz, it's more likely to not send air to the panel vents or windscreen than the floor.
This isn't a particularly difficult item to replace, but if the dealer does it, he'll charge some serious $$ as usual. That's why I'm just waiting for mine to die completely before I pay :)
