Kudos to Rogers Wireless on IPv6 deployment

So frequently on this list we hear people asking/begging their providers for IPv6 roadmaps or chastising them for the lack of same, that I thought it might be nice to actually give props to a provider actually moving the needle.
I was pleasantly surprised today to notice an IPv6 address on my Android smartphone on the Rogers Wireless LTE network. I had to do a double-take and poke through test-ipv6.com to make sure something wasn't amiss, but there it was: honest-to-$deity dual stack service on a Canadian mobile provider, with a dual-stack resolver and everything! ;)
So, kudos, Rogers Wireless!So that's Rogers on the wireless side (with Telus Mobility at last check being in early stages but not yet fully rolled out), and basically Rogers, Telus and a bunch of smaller or regional ISPs that have deployed IPv6 on residential and/or business wired service. Shaw? Bell? (FYI Bell, your IPv6 Starter Kit linked from http://ipv6.bell.ca/ currently hits a 404.
