Bit of a cringey statement to say "bigger than the internet" considering almost every AR/VR application will rely heavily on the internet. I think the spirit of his statement was that it'll be bigger than the Web.

It's neat, and has some practical application, but it can't quite deliver on its full potential. I don't know which AR headset will be the Windows/Apple of this technology but I can describe it. Lightweight, stylish, essentially a smartphone on your face. What AR not-so-obviously does is takes the internet and changes it from a limited access interface, wherein its a technology that has points of access that are limited to terminals that you have to actively access to an interface that you passively interact with. An interface that you have to seek out, to an interface that seeks you out.
