Marshall et al,


Dear JB;

1.) Dare I suggest that you use IPv6 ? It should make a
great NAT.

2.) If you are interested in having content put on your
wireless devices I would like to talk off line.

It's a lack of IP Address Space - and the numbers I gave
- 10's of 
thousands are probably a bit on the small side - in short
order it will 
be multiples of 100,000 IP addresses.  To start with, I'm
willing to 
think in terms of 10's of thousands spread over a handful
of "POPs".

The application is GPRS (aka 2.5/3G cellular) and each
Internet 
connected user or some major subset of them will likely
wind up with an 
address on their mobile device.
