I'm curious if anyone will be able to develop in it (i.e. write code with virtual desktops etc) I'm also curious about how which unexpected consequences people will experience with such devices (nausea, etc... other unknown illnesses cropping up)

They didn’t show any virtual keyboard I think.

  They did, actually it's a simplified floating keyboard and so a separate hardware keyboard is suggested for non alpha numeric input. Via Bluetooth.

  They did, but not for long. There's also a clip, not in the keynote but on Youtube, of someone using an external keyboard.

It should be high res enough, and there should be no screen door effect. See https://youtu.be/OdHbQpg4pOA https://youtu.be/OdHbQpg4pOA for a discussion of related display panel types.

A number of people have written blog posts about doing their work in VR with other headsets, including development. Unless Apple's walled garden gets in the way, then it'll definitely be possible in the Vision too.

If it's comfortable enough to wear for prolonged of times it might be superior to most common multi monitor setups that users have these days. Nausea would be induced by lack of visual references and latency issues. AR with good responsiveness should address that. Eye fatigue and headaches might be another issue. Too early to tell but this might not be that much of an issue. Otherwise, it looks all good.

  Hell just wear for an hour, then take a break for a while, as one is usually advised with regards to PC usage. At least this way, I could actually do stretches and exercises while watching some video. Even prolonged usage of a smartphone is painful. So is prolonged usage of any computing device.

In the Platform State of the Union talk yesterday they actually showed how developing Vision Apps will work and it can be done through the device just by looking at your Mac. It will spawn your Mac screen and the Vision app you're working on in the air. It looked pretty slick.
