In the rather conservative financial/insurance clients to whom I provide services, there's still a strong NIH mentality that has them build way too much in-house. My hope is that the popularity of the sort of social-networking mashups that we're seeing now will ignite some sort of spark in the minds of IT departments to have them envision the potential of composite applications that they have previously underused.

To your point, these companies are taking weeks to implement the integration but it's not just because the integration is based on a mashup; it's because the focus of the composition is around assembly, not code generation.
