$1,000 says Books (Kindle, and others included), Freeform (assuming 3d), Mindfulness, in that order are the most used apps and reasons why people buy a headset. Games and iPad apps will be novelty and helpful - but hands-free reading is the killer app.

(To all the people I've argued with: I change my stance. It's going to win now. Hands down the reader, even without eye tracking, will carry it until the VisiCalc moment, heck the reader may even be it. And pulling in the incalculable number of human hours that created the iPad apps directly into the headset is brilliant. For my sheer enjoyment, I hope the keynote plays on iPhone's 'God gave us 10 styluses' to now be 'no-hands required')

This makes no sense. Why is a hands free book experience so much better than just using an iPad, or even an iPhone?
