I don't see a foothold for them. People who use the iPhone generally adore them, those who do not (or want a cheaper alternative) are happy with Google and those looking for something completely different have Windows. Of those 3 groups I don't see too many people who are upset with their phone situation. The only people I know that hate their phones are BB users.
The clock is ticking on BB. If they don't fix the public impression of their phones soon, then soon pressure from within will force businesses away from BES and into alternatives. Without that base, RIM folds Vancouver in the first round.
