Almost everyone of consequence accepts a /48. Verizon last year was very firm at /32, but I've heard they recently changed their mind. Verizon gave up on trying to get IPv6 to me before this and closed the account after a calendar year's worth of attempts. I replaced them with Global Crossing who got it right on the first try. These days a provider that only accepts a /32 or shorter is the exception, not the rule. ~Seth
