Well, your local network may be IPv6, but from your sky broadband onwards it isn't :-(

I suspect we'll see attempts to reclaim IPs from e.g. Digital/HP/IBM etc who have /8s or whatever and clearly don't need them.

And then there will become a reasonable market in IPv4 subnets/IPs, they'll get slightly pricey and then finally we'll see ISPs deploy IPv6.



David.
