Comcast, nor the other large MSOs, are not as monolithic as they may appear
from the outside. In most cases the large MSOs are divided into regions that
are more or less autonomous and that doesn't count the outlier properties that
haven't been brought into the fold of the region they are

I think you'll be in for a surprise here, too. The 4G transition is already
underway. For the vendors where 4G means LTE, IPv6 is the native protocol
and IPv4 requires a certain amount of hackery to operate.
In the WiMax case (Gee, thanks, SPRINT), things are a bit murkier, but, I

Traffic has to have two end points. Just because the content source
supports IPv6 does not mean the content request will be. That's
Using public address space for private networking is a gross misuse of the
resource.
No it is not. IP was invented to enable internetworking. The IPv4
address registry
was set up so that anyone who wanted to use IP for internetworking could get
unique addresses. The key here, is

One example I heard was a generic financial exchange connected to
perhaps a hundred other companies. Those companies also connect to the
Internet but the exchange itself does not. It's valuable for the
exchange to use addressing which will not conflict with any of its
customers' RFC1918 use

So riddle me this - what CPE stuff were they giving out in 2009 that

nobody's ever actually *tried* it...)
I would venture to say the same as today's CPE
There is no hackery require to make IPv4 work in LTE. LTE supports
IPv4, IPv6, and IPv4v6 bearers all the same... its just an option from
the core perspective, handset / chipset makers like to limit the
options to keep cost and variability down.
