Open source
Keep in mind that the code to developers is completely open source. If someone wants to make their own wave software or use the real time HTML 5 support for something else.

Besides this is just a preview of the basics. Open to only 100,000 people, you can't expect much. Plus Google is famous for keeping it's software in Beta for ages...

There won't be a whole lot of excitement right now but it's coming, eventually. Google may be slow but they do tend to come up with some super amazing stuff.

Eventually I think wave will be running alongside Google Reader, maps, voice, chrome, earth, picasa and blogger. And who knows, they may even keep GMail...lol I'd think they would sooner integrate Wave INTO gmail.

All Wave to me is cool new code for the cool new HTML 5.
