That was my ultimate point. And let's be honest, the client piece is
the easy bit, the server side is tough. I know that over the last 2-3
years some real alternatives have come on the market and I think the
climate for wresting control from Exchange is a real possibility.

There are very good enterprise ready solutions available indeed.
There are some in this list (which is not up to date, by the way)

I do look forward to the PIM. I think OOo is really, really close to
being enterprise ready and it's amazing to see how far its come since
the StarOffice days. I think over the next year or 2 we'll see far
more adoption. Just a few more key pieces and this puzzle will be
complete. :)
In my opinion and experience, OOo is more enterprise ready than you
think. Regardless how good the alternative is, migration can be
expensive and complicated. I think that's more the point.
Best,
