> Currently IPv6 does not allow you to simply do away with public IPv4 adderesses. On the ISP side that would mean providing a product that couldn't access a huge chunk of the web. On the hosting side that would mean providing a service that isn't available to a huge chunk of users. It's not viable.

The biggest telco (Telstra) in my country (Australia) allocates IPv6 addresses (only) to mobile phones. I'm not sure when the change over happened, because no one noticed / mentioned it. The WiFi hotspot on my WiFi phone hands out both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Each host gets it's own /64 routable IPv6, so there is no NAT on IPv6. By Debian laptop prefers to use IPv6 when it's available, so when hotspotting to my phone I'm entirely IPv6.

I'm not sure when that happened, because I didn't notice. As far as I can tell, no one noticed.
