The amount of effort required in making sure your customer's phones
support IPv6, as well as having the back-end systems updated to match,
is too daunting for most mobile operators, taken from the point of view
of what they can immediately gain, but spending a couple of millions of
NAT444 today to earn billions tomorrow.

The desire for change has to be fundamental.
