Hasso plattner comments seem to indicate that they are behind i2 and manugistics by atleast 3 years...What do you guys think of this statement?

(This is a snippet from a 9/15 CNET article)

" ...While the back office applications, SAP's core R/3 system of financial, human resource management, and manufacturing management applications have reached that status, SAP only began exploring the other markets in the past 18 months. But Plattner said he is confident SAP developers can have to market by 2002, supply chain applications that are as good if not better than current offerings from i2 technologies in Irving, Texas, or Manugistics in Rockville, Maryland, and sales force, marketing, and customer service applications that will give Vantive, Scopus, or SAP competitor Baan's recently acquired Aurum a run for their money...

Re: Says SAP will remain market leader but growth rate will slow.

Well, what do we worry about then and who do we stick with is the question here. A market leader with slower growth is still a market leader. gg. I will start worrying when the company says it is slowing down and others overtake them.

Thanks for the links.
