The ATT cellular folks respond...

ATT:  "ATT Wireless. My name is ____ and I'm here to help"

User: "My iPhone web browser can't reach sites like ipv6.google.com via your cellular network but it can over my wifi 
at home."

ATT: "So you are having problems with your uVerse wireless connection?"

... after escalating to L2 support....

ATT: "So we will start be reseting your iPhone and then configure it for data access...."

...after 45 minutes...

ATT: "Are you sure the website is valid? Let me check that website on my desktop here."... "Well, thats the problem! 
http://ipv6.google.com/ doesn't exist. I can't get to it via my desktop here at support.  You need to use www instead 
of ipv6 and everything will be fine.  Is there anything else I can help you with today?"
