Anyone have any information on that front ...?

For FiOS, the ONTs do transparent muckery at the IP level and aren't yet capable of equivalent IPv6 muckery. Verizon is also quite confident they don't actually have to do anything about it. Instead, they'll just roll out 6RD relays like Qwest/Centurylink did. You didn't REALLY need a 1480 MTU, did you?

For Comcast business services, the SMC box on my demarc panel isn't IPv6 capable and neither are any of Comcast's other business CPE.
