The first 3D printer I saw in person was a couple of years ago in Vienna and they were printing a new battery cover for an old gaming device. I was seriously impressed with the technology then, but this really reveals the potential. While obviously it's not on a level with specialized technologies, at least just now, I think the cost factors will drive some interesting applications. You can imagine what a few expensive high quality, but low running cost, printers in a handful of core Indian and Chinese hospitals might be able to do in medical areas where price is a large factor.
