Verizon in the USA does have iOS on ipv6. Afaik, the

ipv6 as a user option because it is part of the

I have been trying to locate someone within Apple for months 
now to speak about IPv6 on their mobile devices. The wall of 
silence is impressive.

The android manufacturers at last respond, even though it's 
not always the answer I want :P
Mobile operators have some difficulties to get some IPv6 terminals.It is the reason why we have proposed an IETF draft 
to define some IPv6 profile for mobile terminals 
(https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-binet-v6ops-cellular-host-requirements/)
IMHO it is strategic to get a document that specifies such profile. It is important that such draft becomes a WG 
document so all support for such draft on IETF v6ops ML is welcome. 

Such document will not replace discussions we may have with vendors but it is for sure a useful contribution to our 
common objective. 

Win phone 8 has a menu option for ipv6 but I don't think it 
works ....

Yeah, it's like the Galaxy Nexus which has IPv4v6 in the menu 
but if you use it it asks for an IPv4 PDP context and when it 
gets it, it falls over and needs to be rebooted.

I have been v6-only on mobile for 2 years now, and I feel 
fine. I am 
sending this email using a v6-only note2... dogfooding it. Yet, the 
rotten apples spoil the bunch as the saying goes... and 
hence 464xlat.

Any progress with this, to get this into mainline?

Then again, I feel we'll have proper IPv4v6 PDP context 
before there is any worthwile 464XLAT deployment, but for the 
long tail I would like to have 464XLAT in all devices.
