Sadly, v6 support on popular "cloud-only" services is suspiciously
absent.  Terremark vCoudExpress, Savvis, Amazon EC2, among others
don't support it today, or on any public roadmaps...

It's worth noting that the address space used in the large public clouds
 almost certainly overlaps with one's own private numbering plan, and
having had to interconnect with some "public cloud" I can tell you that
I do not appreciate having to 1:1 nat several thousand potential systems.

I poked several about v6 support it would be greately appreciated if
other people would likewise contact your account reps.
