Among other things, A380s at Hartsfield could put Atlanta icon Delta out of business. Los Angeles International is planning a new terminal for A380s. Supposedly, about 60 airports around the world are making the necessary preparations. Boeing of course pioneered the jet airline market with the 707, but other competitors did very well by being second and designing aircraft that remedied the 707's drawbacks. I suspect that Boeing is mulling a similar "be second, do it better" strategy for the new superjumbo market.

Time will tell. But there will not be 1500 A380s built.
