Large ISPs (in the USA anyways) like Comcast turn on IPv6 by default.

Myself I use mobile broadband and no IPv6 option at all in any form available. Many ISP's in the UK still don't offer it as an option either. You do find the smaller ones will offer it. But in general, been lacking a push in the UK at consumer level, though that may change over the next few years.

As I write this, I'm on a Comcast connection with IPv6.

My home has a comcast /60, so I could give every human on earth (call it 8 billion) an IPv4 worth of space (4 billion).

I've got a VPS as well with Linode that does IPV6 which makes IPv6 all the more handy.

In reality I just have a /64 for untrusted wireless, /64 for trusted wireless, /64 for trusted wired network, and /64 for untrusted wired network.

Nice that I can easily get to my OpenGarage widget remotely without having to redirect ports, or depend on some random cloud.
