What measure are you using when you claim the iphone is the leader because it certainly isn't sales, in north america the leader by a significant margin in smartphone market is the blackberry and globally it is nokia that still leads the way in market share.

Now that their various exclusive deals are starting to expire, the iphone's global market share should improve a bit, but in general people don't mind changing networks so it may not actually be that big a boost, the one size fits all arrogance of apple when it comes to form factor compared with their rivals is likely to become a steadily bigger issue for them as time goes by.

Not sure where RIM is going. If they don't reinvent themselves they're in danger of becoming much smaller when iPhone and Android get into business devices/apps market.
There is no need for rim to reinvent themselves, what they need to do is exactly the same as all the other hardware companies, keep improving their products and address their weaknesses.
