It appears to me as though there are enough of them that allows precise determination of a particular device on the net. There is no hierarchy with MAC addresses and therefore no way to route them. There is nothing in a MAC address to tie it to a particular network, and no way for an ISP to assign MAC addresses dynamically. For the average person IPv6 is a non issue. It isn't like the HDTV broadcasting where one system is completely turned off. You won't have to start using IPv6 for your home networking anytime soon.

TexasTech: the reason we don't do that is that they're not grouped, which makes routing nearly impossible...
