Perhaps you missed my amendment:

Should have said "And, they have no plans to deploy IPv6 in the immediate 
future."

Far different response then whoever quoted..."And, they have no plans to

"Cogent's official stance on IPv6 is that we will deploy IPv6 when it
becomes a commercial necessity. We have tested IPv6 and we have our plan
for rolling it out, but there are no commercial drivers to spend money
to upgrade a network to IPv6 for no real return on investment."

This came rom a contact at Cogent (not sure of the role, probably sales
rep).

I'm skeptical as to where this info came from since this seems nothing
more then nay-say? if people are going to make grandiose statements
then they should justify them with reputable evidence.  I would be
extremely surprised if Cogent engineering isn't working on a IPv6 plan
or doesn't have one already in place.

Ouch!

I hope this is a non-starter for a lot of folks.
