You gotta love how the first application to be shown in that video is e-mail. I can just imagine how that meeting went.

Dev: "OK, we've created the first platform for fully holographic interfaces. You can create entire worlds where the only limit is your imagination. What should we build first?"

PM: "Outlook!"

Oh Microsoft, never change ;)

One of the points is that they didn't build a new Outlook for it, that's just crusty regular old Outlook being Outlook (in a 3D space, but Outlook might not even know that).
