HTML5 is almost too good to be true. Flashkiller? We all hope so. (internet games on my iPod touch? Please?)

Also, this article is stunning. As a digital artist, I am incredibly excited about the possibilities that the new tools could present - Especially the fractal render and 3D object viewers. This feels like one of those projects that has nearly unlimited potential, simply because there's a massive number of incredibly capable people interested and involved in the development and implementation of HTML5.

Apps like Lucid Chart and Sketchpad are where I think HTML5 will be most useful. Flash is still (and likely will be) popular for games for a long time, but it doesn't work too well for the 'productive' apps, which is where I see HTML5 stepping in.
