But knowing that a significant (50%+) of android devices may not support
IPv6 (just like my brand new Samsung Galaxy 7'' tablet (just bought over
the weekend) being v4-only) and may not be upgraded by their users to the
right software, and that Skype etc. apps are out there, my optimism fades
away.

Yeah, Samsung is screwy on Android+IPv6.  My (less than 6 month old)
Samsung phone with Android 4.0 gets an IPv6 address (autoconfigured) but
does not add an IPv6 default route, so it can't reach the IPv6 Internet
over wi-fi.  IIRC when I enabled T-Mobile's IPv6 APN, it did handle IPv6
over the cell network okay.

My generic Chinese import Android 4.0 tablet works just fine with IPv6,
as did my old HTC/T-Mobile G2 (wi-fi only).

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
