My ISP here in SF, Webpass, has begun deploying their customers behind an IPv4 NAT with an IPv6 /64 prefix. I think this trend is going to be more common with consumer ISPs. I mind a little bit, since VPN access is impossible on IPv4, but with mobile carriers deploying IPv6 I think I will care less as time goes on.

It is noticeably faster to use IPv6 with Google, something like 4ms vs. 30ms connection times. I'm not sure if it's a more efficient route, or underutilized routers handling the traffic.
