I think there are killer apps for VR, mainly Telepresence. I've been trying to make it work but it's not something you can really bootstrap (well, you can, but it's taking me a long time :P ). Some validation: "When I was asked to see a 360-degree, fully spherical panoramic picture of The Colosseum in virtual reality, I thought, “meh, what’s so special about a picture?” I finished some work, perhaps made a cup of coffee or two, before I made my way over. Well, I was wrong. I’ve never been to The Colosseum, but I was blown away by how much it managed to make me feel like I was there" Jeff Atwood: "Adding hands to VR was revelatory, the one bit of VR I've experienced to date that I can honestly say I was blown away by. Add hands, and suddenly you are there because you can now interact with that VR world in a profoundly human way: by touching it. " People from the USA are not so used to these problems, but I live it every day - I work remotely, I have family in 4 continents, a lot of what I want to buy is not sold in my country so I have no way of knowing if it's what I actually want, and a long list of etceteras.
