Their 6bone space will go away per 6/6/6. That /32 should provide for
65535 /48's, sites that is, which should be enough for most sites. If it
isn't then just request a larger allocation:
http://www.sixxs.net/tools/grh/tla/
* 1x /20
* 1x /21
* 1x /23
* 59x /24
* 1x /27
* 57x /28
* 2x /30
* 1x /31
* 719x /32
* 12x /35
The /24 + /28's are 6bone space thus theses will go away in ~1,5 years.
The /35's should be upgraded to /32's, apparently IPv6 is not
interesting enough for these operators though.

Nokia makes Cellphones, but doesn't provide connectivity (afaik). Telia,
the /20 above, does provide connectivity and they got, for them, enough
space. If someone needs the space then just describe your problem to one
of the RIR's and ask for the allocation. It can be done.
