Hmm, the answer of what happened to Elrohir and Elladan should be quite simple actually:

1) They die.
2) They sail into the West.

Let me explain alternative 2 a little farther: Since it sais in the Silmarillion that the Three Ringkeepers are the last of Noldor to set sail from Middle Earth to the West (that will be Galadriel, Elrond and Gandalf OR Círdan, I'm not sure who is accounted as the Ringkeeper of Narya, even though Gandalf carries it, it sais that the last of Noldor sails out from Middle Earth, anyway): These are the last elves of the Noldor to leave Middle Earth, and since Elrohir and Elladan are of the Noldor they either have died before or have left before.

I know this has nothing to do with Tolkien, but it's an interesting thought.
