Also, the cost of production of CNTs is still rather high, a CNT space elevator many, many kilometers long is probably still to expensive for government to be interested (since they'll probably be the ones to fund it).
However, Double Walled Nanotubes have some interesting properties that might be able to surpass the listed "short" comings of SWNT, specifically the thermal and chemical properties.
I hope this isn't considered nested posting or something like that.
