Here's a great example:

http://dev.getoutsmart.com/os3d/demos/videoroom/

Entire 3d engine, with UI's projected onto the walls and a character
than can walk around. Under 100Kb, created in Flex, which is Adobe's
tool for generating Flash on the fly.

Note the working calendar, pie 3d charting etc etc etc. See the black
screen on the wall? That's for steaming video. Mouse over it to see full
VCR controls and to stream video into the 3d environment. Try doing that
in JavaScript :D

This entire thing is about the size of 2 or 3 jpegs on a regular web
site (in kb).
