As far as I can tell, IPv6 is at least theoretically capable of offering exactly two things that IPv4 does not offer and can't easily be made to offer: 1. More addresses. 2. Provider independent addresses At the customer level, #1 has been thoroughly mitigated by NAT, eliminating demand. Indeed, the lack of IPv6 NAT creates a negative demand: folks used to NAT don't want to give it up.
#1 has been partially mitigated by NAT, and perhaps only temporarily. The last chapter of that book is yet to be written. /John
