Since most business development is done via MS apps (PowerPoint, Word, etc.) or other non-i platforms, the i community will continue to shrink vis-a-vis business development. Now if you mean application development of automating business processes (instead of business development)... the same answer applies. If you mean business plans... the same answer applies. As to the i playing a part in business... its a shrinking part, as things are currently going.

My question is this: When will we ever reach the point of
being business developers again vs. ... techgeek ...
I've flip-flopped back and forth quite a bit during the past 8 years. Who knows when the dust will settle? Right now I'm pleased to be doing more application development than "tool" or "interface" development.
Meanwhile, the tug and pull between traditional desktop applications on one hand, green-screens on the other, and a whole lot of Web technologies in the middle, keeps the dust from settling.
You mentioned Silverlight and Flex. They may be advertised as Web technologies, but they look more like traditional desktop technologies to me.
Nathan.
