Only the stuff the iPhone can do video-out for, so yes, just the stuff you mentioned.

Sure. It's not a limitation of the goggles, as much as it is a limitation of the device's video output capabilities. Likewise, I'd love to use this for games, but no joy there -- neither iPods nor the iPhone enable apps to output video, only video content like movies, TV shows and music videos.

So the Apple keynotes are some custom solution - hardware but then why not sell that? Or they could be doing it in software - I could imagine running a vnc server on the iPhone/iPT and viewing it with any old machine that can project. In education if you can't share the screen of this thing it will be of limited usefulness on the student / teacher side. Our Ed reps are talking about so far it being used for evaluation, but not much for a personal device for instructional resources. Sharing the screen to a projector or large display would be a gateway for adoption in education.
