I have IPv6 though Verizon Business. If you need some contacts, let me
know.

Note that they use GRE tunnels, and they're using some sort of broken
juniper gear with MTU issues.

Believe me, I tried really, really hard with Verizon. When I turned down
my SAVVIS circuit for other reasons, I mentioned that native IPv6 could
have persuaded me to keep it anyway. I keep checking with Sprint from
time to time (hi, Wes) to see if/when I can convert my tunnel to native.
