I fully agree that nobody wants to strap a big set of googles, but I'm also willing to bet that more and more of our lives will take place in "cyberspace".

I'm willing to bet in the distant future almost all our lives will be virtual because it is simply so much cheaper than physical things.

Our video games will become more immersive, I would not be surprised if a generation or two a family holiday could be a week inside a video game.

Our work conference calls are becoming more and more immersive. I would not be surprised if work from home and work in the office eventually meet in the middle where you are physically at home but with a virtual representation sitting in a vertical office, where communication and collaboration are easy.
