It is a big marketplace with huge players (i.e. Microsoft, Symantec, Citrix, etc) already doing app virtualization/streaming. Still, since it's so large other major companies will be looking for a good platform to build upon if they can get into it, too. I made a comment above which is probably better suited for this thread:

Yup - And I don't think any of the big players have really "nailed it" by a long shot yet. Corps still spend a vast amount of time in packaging/testing.
Also, there is probably a neat open source niche there - take on a BaseShield style service, then simply pick up pre-packaged X-Y-Z, with all the updates/etc. Just as you would a mature distro.
I can see that being a really appealing model.
