Graphene: Problem or Panecea?

While some researchers in nanotechnology and surface engineering are exploring the many promising facets of graphene, others experts are warning that graphene might not be all its cracked up to be, especially in the world of electronics. Is the research too esoteric to find real world application? What about the difference between the possible applications of multilayer graphene versus single layer? Is it simply a matter of better collaboration between researchers and industry?
