I should have said "the ultimate material that still has many, many technological advancements to go through".
Admittedly, carbon has a few growing pains to go through, and it is going to be awhile before it will be as impact resistant as something like ti.
But why I say that it is the ultimate material is it's infinite tuning characteristics, the ability to make such large, fluid designs with minimal weight (compared to any metal in the same shape), and it ability to use it in so many applications.
Now, on the subject of nano-tech: the surface hasn't even been scratched, from what I understand. I think that I would call it merely a marketing term, for now. But the future could bring some petty cool stuff...
