If you can find one :( There's a few places (Hurricane Electric, SixXS, OCCAID) that are more or less involved in IPv6 stuff, but they generally only work by way of tunneling. There's also the issue of network gear that supports it. In the next few days, I'm deploying a brand new core router that we just paid about three large for (brand name intentionally left blank, but it's a big enough company that you've probably heard of 'em). As near as I can tell, it doesn't support IPv6 in any form or fashion. > Once I get settled and can afford the separate IPv6 feed without an > immediate return, I'll be getting it. Everything I have is Mikrotik and > they should have IPv6 implemented at some point. For small-scale experiments and such, this should be nearly (or totally) free. I've had an IPv6 tunnel on my desktop for a couple years now. Never used it for anything besides looking at the dancing turtle, really, but it's there. If you don't feel like getting a direct IPv6 allocation from ARIN (assuming you already get direct IPv4 allocations from them), SixXS can set you up with a small chunk of addresses, more than enough to play around with, and unless it's changed very recently they'll do this for free.
