MediaBeacon showed off a really cool GWT-based product at Campfire. They've built the equivalent of a desktop application inside the browser (full drag-and-drop, file management, etc). The video is up on their website: http://mediabeacon.com/

I'll also plug our GWT-based product, DotSpots. I'm dogfooding it on my blog at http://grack.com - just select one of the paragraphs or click one of the blue dots to see the UI. It's an example of a non-traditional GWT application: we're running our own GWT code inside of a foreign website. Our website is more of classic GWT application, but we compile both of those targets (as well as Chrome and Firefox extensions) from subsets of the same codebase.
