The article has a nice summary at the end which IMO says it all:

"This doesn’t mean that we’ll suddenly see computer chips made out of graphene instead of silicon, though — we still haven’t found a way of giving graphene a bandgap, which means it’s actually fairly useless as far as digital computing goes. We might see some graphene-based wireless modems capable of ludicrous performance, though."
