I wrote a blog article about IPV6 and our allocation (http://blog.nationalnet.com/2010/10/...her-fun-facts/)

I was amazed at the size of the numbers and especially the size of our allocation (79,228,162,514,264,337,593,543,950,336 IP addresses). I learned numbers I never knew existed (like "undecillion")

My favorite line about our allocation is "If NationalNet decided to give a copy of the current Internet (which is about 4 billion IP addresses) to everyone on the planet out of our IPV6 space, we could give each person 3,074,457,345 internets a piece."

Now...that's a lot of IP space!
