These exact same things were said when IPv6 was first introduced. Even "World IPv6 Day" was what, 4 years ago? It's still not fully implemented yet. So while I am indeed excited about the movement, I'm not going to hold my breath for exponential accelleration. :)

Yep. Unfortunately that's how the world works.

Oddly enough, most of the leading brands are still doing it. I'm sure they'll jump on the wagon when they're forced to. That's how it's been so far all these years already. Continue selling your product as long as you can to make as much money as you can, then when forced.. update your product gradually to keep the profit margin large.

Sure, those smaller companies are probably the first to deploy newer technologies, while the bigger companies with monopolies hold off until they can not hold off any longer.

There comes a time in everyone's lives where they must make a choice of being a sysop, or continue to enjoy real life. If I were roaming the world in a camper, one of my least worries would be if my router was up or not. It can definitely wait until I get home to fix it - much like how it seems some of these 'pensionados' you refer to choose to do as well. :)
MV> You do not have a neighbour or friend who can push the reset button?
Sure. But I probably wouldn't feel a need to call/bother them to drop everything they're doing to push a button on my router/computer.
Regards, Nick
