My guess is that it will be a spreadsheet app.
The first ever "killer app" was VisiCalc, a spreadsheet for DOS:

Then Lotus 1-2-3 became the big "killer app", then MS Excel.

So I'm guessing a 3D spreadsheet, usable with something like
Project LookingGlass.

But who knows, maybe VRML will make a comeback now that the
hardware will be better.
