I think it will be an overused magical plot solving device.

So, just like all the other Sonic Screwdrivers, then.

One of the best quotes I heard about the sonic (I forget who said it) was that it should never be used in the second half of the episode. It's for opening doors and getting the Doctor into trouble, not for getting them back out of it again.
