Verizon Wireless is going to be soon selling operations in 105

will be transfered to the new compa

A big thank-you to everyone who replied, called, sent kind words and

Verizon), and it would be nice if the folks at VZ would take some
steps to fix these apparen

I am fairly confident ARIN followed their policies.
The existing policies allow anyone (including Verizon)
to make a request for (and receive) a /9 with appropriate
justification.

This discussion about smartphones and the like was presuming that those
devices all received public IPs -- my experience has been more often than
not that they get RFC 1918 addresses.

For better or worse, Verizon hands out globally routable addresses for
smartphones. (Certainly, the one I've got has one.) They seem to come from
the same pool as data card links.
Note that I suspect that there's a nontrivial number of folk that are used to

I think that you've got a bit of a logic fault here. You seem to be assuming
that because you can't find any external any sign of Verizon preparing for
IPv6, that they're definitely not doing so.
Maybe they are, maybe they aren't (your -guess- is as good as mine), but that
process is not neces

couple of lab GRE tunnels.
