I hardly think so, but in any case, the solution is pretty simple:
give out IP addresses for free, instead of charging an arm and a leg
for anything other than a single address.  As long as ISPs won't
provide multiple addresses, or won't provide them except at
unreasonably high prices, NAT will remain.


This is connected to IPv6 address assignment policies at your friendly
local RIR. I would urge that people who are interested in this issue in
the ARIN region join the PPML mailing list and even consider coming the
Montreal ARIN meeting next month. There are two proposals coming up, 2005-1 and
2006-4, which would both relax the assignment of PI IPv6 space.
