Is the term Business Object any different from Model objects (Model as in MVC) ?

Not as far as I know - the purpose of the Model (as in MVC) is to encapsulate the business rules from the rest of the system (such as presentation rules, communication protocols, persistence rules etc.)

The soul is dyed the color of its thoughts. Think only on those things that are in line with your principles and can bear the light of day. The content of your character is your choice. Day by day, what you do is who you become. Your integrity is your destiny - it is the light that guides your way. - Heraclitus

The Model in MVC definitely represents the Business Components. They may be business entities in simple Java beans or enterprise beans. Model basically maintains data and core of the all business operations. So simply Model in MVC are business objects.
