One aspect of this that seems to be overlooked is:
How far is this BYOD idea going to go.

We have people saying I should bring in my own phone, tablet, and / or laptop. OK, what if I want to bring in my own wireless point so I can have wireless in my office and not have my desk tied down by the patch cable? With the BYOD concept I have to be able to do this as a wireless point has no real difference to the connectivity aspects than any of the others do, they all connect by wireless. Thus putting in my own wireless point makes my connecting all these items a lot easier.

Naturally, once this is done the entire network is wide open to attack - but then it was once you allowed all the other device to connect in what ever way they could as well.
