However, I think eventually the residential ISPs are going to start =
charging extra
for IPv4 service. Some residences may pay for it initially, but if they =
think there=E2=80=99s a
way to move away from it and the ISPs start fingerpointing to the =
specific laggards,
you=E2=80=99ll see a groundswell of consumers pushing to find =
alternatives.
