I feel jealous ... I lost my final grandparent in 1990!

I was at my grandparents the other day who are on a Bigpond NBN bundle with a Telstra provided router etc, they were running native IPv6 much to my surprise! They certainly wouldn't have requested it.

Telstra have been offering IPv6 to their commercial customers starting in September 2012...just nothing for BigPond or mobiles. Been in the works for years but it'll happen I guess. Hopefully not too far away.

The carriers are already on board.

In some countries, absolutely.  But here in Australia, Telstra are still unable to offer IPv6 over their 3G or 4G networks (I have this on good authority as a partner who may be putting tens if not hundreds of thousands of end-points onto their networks), and my understanding is that Optus and Vodafone are in no better a position.
