Re: Looking for an IPv6 naysayer...

ISPs know it takes years to move a customer base.  They should have
been ready years ago.  They still arn't ready.  I was asking for
what features to look for in a new CPE so that it won't need to be
replaced when they turn on IPv6 and got this as a answer.  It really
isn't helpful.
Mark,

I certainly wasn't trying to be flip or short and for that I apologize. To answer the specific question on a CPE that depends both on what kind of access network you're connecting to as well as if its a service provider installed/supported device or one that a technical end user can support him/herself as those are very different use cases.

The point I am trying to communicate is that CPE issue not simple, straightforward, or cheap because in almost all of the non-DOCSIS cases we're looking at forklift upgrades.
