I suppose they are selectively letting certain devices in some areas. I get "der duh, what?" when I ask about it.
uhm... you asked someone at their kiosks/stores about ipv<anything>?? you are a very, very brave man.
It certainly does not work on the iPad "3" in Ohio. Not only that, but I can't even pay them to give me a stable IPv4 address, because if you get a static IP, it disables the hotspot functionality. Head-->Wall.
good times!! mobile carriers live in what seems like a very different world from the one the rest of the internet lives in :( (cameron's folk aside, where there are still some oddities, at least you can get working ipv6, and mostly working v4... or working enough that I can tether my phone and vpn over that connection when necessary) -chris

The only way to get a stable connection is to pay them $500 to get a static public IP address.wierd, I could swear someone in my office with a galaxy-nexus-on-vzw was able to browse some ipv6-only sites.
