I know Verizon is rolling out v6 in some areas of their FiOS footprint.
The router they provided supports it, but what I got from their customer
service people was that they ran into some sort of issue with their TV
set-top boxes working properly with IPv6 or at least in a dual-stack
environment. At least that's where things stand in Pittsburgh.
I don't think they've provided training to their customer service people
on IPv6 yet. The rep I spoke with a few weeks ago told me I was the first
customer that has asked her about it.
Looking forward to native v6 / dual-stack here...
