I think the bigger issue is that the traditional players in their respective areas are used to "owning" the market. Collaboration forces vendors to work together, and "share" the pie. We all know this is a major feat. Same thing is seen in end users. The "network" guy and the "app" guy still think they're responsible for their own areas, but this set-up doesn't work with an effective enterprise collaboration strategy in place. Major IT reorg is going to have to happen in order to make collaboration work. Are enterprises ready for this? It's a big commitment. RE: #5 and maybe #6
