I've got a steel fork on my hybrid (alloy frame) and it does much the same job as carbon (well almost) just a few hundred grams more... which isn't an issue unless your doing big miles or racing. The roads round here range from excellent to rough abandoned rural roads, with more potholes than road!
Agreed - you don't really need carbon to smooth out the ride if you're toting hybrid type tyres - they will soak up all the buzz you could ever want.
