The biggest incentive I had to switch to 64bit was the fact that, if I didn't, only ~3Gb of my memory would be used. I had no hardware/driver problems when I switched though.
When 4Gb of memory becomes common, that's when I expect 64bit installs to also become common. Until then, computer builders will likely 'play it safe' and install 32bit.
