Also, as the phenomenon of city-wide wifi becomes more popular, then the determining device will become the operating system (Windows, Linux, MacOS, Android, Symbian etc) and that seems to be getting better all the time. </div>

That said, YouTube's move to IPv6 is great news and a step in the right
direction.<br>

<div>Cher all,</div>
<div> According to this story from CNET (<a href="http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20000052-264.html" target="_blank">http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-20000052-264.html</a>),
Youtube is now IPv6-capable. Well, IF consumer computing is headed
towards the cloud (with all the xSlates/yPads and netbooks out there),
then perhaps the more of these cloud-based services that that become
IPv6 enable, the better for adoption. Any thoughts?</div>
