Yes RIM was right to see that the iPhone was so powerful that it was breaking down all the (up till then) norms around how corporate IT purchased hardware and software vs consumer. But they could have panicked less because they had a big install legacy base to feed off for 2 - 3 years to get a more consumer friendly version right.
It's worth noting that Apple is in the same position today as RIM only 10x or 50x larger but still vulnerable to a brand new device upending their entire company.
