Well I've said here for years that the real nanotech was biotech. A nanotech that is based on "living" replicators.

But as to those ubiquitous nanotubes, looks like they're a candidate to extend Moore's Law for a while. Imagine superdense RAM that retains its contents when powered off. (Yes, I know about today's flash memory)
