2015 seems awfully optimistic. I wouldn't want to be the poor soul responsible for their ISP network who built a transition plan based on a 2015 depletion and then realized I was wrong by a few years.

The major problem with the story is that it confounds IANA runout (objectively predicted for 2011) with when ISPs run out of IPv4 space (which is not so easy to predict, but 2015 is a popular estimate). The rest is pretty good for a story in the non-technical media, IMHO. You can find Daniel's recent talk at http://www.ipv6.ie/summit2010/.
