The 380 will also be ideal for short high density routes. JAL had the 747-400D built for them. A 744 with no galleys and high density economy only - seating some 650 people. They spend their life flogging between Tokyo and Osaka. The way the Asian market is developing, there must be another market for this sort of operation, between say Beijing and Shanghai.
