Do you really need that many IP addresses?  When somebody finally gets

The way I see it, it's: "if someone gets around to implement *IPv6 NAT*"
(which, if its designers were asked, is contrary to the idea of ipv6).

true, but back in the real world it's sometimes desriable to hid _chich_ specific machine somethign comes from. so I expect that implementation of NAT is going tohappen at some point before it's widely deployed.
