Possibly when "Good" gets a little better you may see a change, however, people and companies do not want their work data mixing with their personal devices. Anyone that has to answer to PCI, or HIPPA and is subject to frequent audits does not want their wedding photos mixing with their corporate email.

There are other hurdles still, like remote device destruction and key management as well, I could go on forever.
BYOD is a wave. Its going to wash over all of this.

I am no fan of Good either, but there are huge cost benefits to BYOD and people don't want to carry two or more devices.

PCI, HIPPA and some legal/finance are verticals need the additional security. Most don't, and you should expect a BYOD plan to come really soon.
