For testing purposes, we try to keep a few phones on each major carrier, and I was actually surprised at how many of our randomly purchased phones did support IPv6. T-Mobile: Nokia N900 works great thanks to you(admittedly a dead-end from Nokia, but it works with the same level of shell script and kernel hacking that all N900 users expect) AT&T: iPhone 4 (works on wifi, but not over 3G. Can't even be disabled if you don't want v6) Verizon: HTC Thunderbolt (works out of the box) No IPv6 on Sprint, US Cellular or Metro PCS though. They don't have anything that supports IPv6 as far as I can tell. For me as a consumer, I actually had no idea that the Thunderbolt or iPhone were even using IPv6, it's totally automatic and seamless. But I am surprised at how few phones/tablets have any IPv6 support at all, with how late in the game this is. -- Kevin
