Examples of apps taking advantage of sensors:

  • "Leafsnap" from the Smithsonian
  • "Video Physics" where students can take a video of an action (e.g. a ball bouncing), trace paths of objects on the screen, and change things like angles, forces, etc to see what would change.

The other selling point is apps with a really good UI – better than their desktop/laptop counterparts. One example here is Blackboard Mobile, which has a much better UI for their "virtual whiteboard" and some class sites. Same info as in the web-based version, but makes for a better UX.
