I own an Epson 7800 and mostly been printing on matte/fine art papers. Printing on canvas is getting more popular everyday with several places offering prints on these. Probably some of less common would be printing on digital fabrics/textiles. Theres also a product called inkjet aid which allows you to paint a coating on a number of media to allow you to print on them. These open up several possibilities left up to the imagination.
Costs wise varies alot but one thing is its not cheap and unless you have a printer at your disposal you won't find many opportunities to experiment with these medias.
