Exactly.

I have no personal knowledge of this situation, so this is wild
speculation.

Verizon Wireless is going to be soon selling operations in 105
markets. It may well be that the IP addresses for those markets
will be transfered to the new

After a few emails traded with David Ulevitch from OpenDNS, it is clear to
me that they do NOT suffer from this issue, and have a work-around. My

Here's a theoretical solution to this problem that I'd like to open for
discussion.
In each location where a provider hosts their anycasted service, there
is likely a local, non-anycasted IP address for each server.
There should be, yes.

receiving a
I didn't know where to jump in in the current discussion and what I wanted
to discuss was quite general, so I thought I'd create a new thread instead.
And the right move, IMHO! (FWIW)
So, anyone saying IPv6 is ready for prime-time whereever IPv4 is used, has
a
very simplified view of the world.
I suppose you can individually configure every host to get itself
temporary addresses from RA announcements. This isn't usually a
good default configuration, but OS implementation already seems to
be inconsistent on the default configuration here. So we're back to
the IPv4 dark ages

I am fairly confident ARIN followed their policies.
The existing policies allow anyone (including Verizon)

For better or worse, Verizon hands out globally routable addresses for
smartphones. (Certainly, the one I've got has one.) They seem to come from
the same pool as data card links.
Note that I suspect that there's a nontrivial number of folk that are used to
using some not quite really NAT
I think that you've got a bit of a logic fault here. You seem to be assuming
that because you can't find any external any sign of Verizon preparing for
IPv6, that they're definitely not doing so.
Maybe they are, maybe they aren't (your -guess- is as good as mine), but that
process is not
