I also think 2015 is very optimistic for some players. Specifically cellphone providers that provide data access over for example 3G or 4G. The growth is so fast that the block allocations from the RIRs are hard to compute.
I helped one at the last RIPE meeting in Prague, and then will now get a /13 that will help them through calendar year 2010. They will definitely not be able to get today the addresses they need until 2015. And they definitely do not have it. And that is in Sweden, only 9 million people.
