In that article it says:
One sign that demand for IPv6 is growing -- and also a good way to test if your own Internet connection is ready for IPv6 -- is Google's introduction of direct access to its search engine for IPv6 users, which the company announced on its official blog on Tuesday. The address ipv6.google.com will only work if you have an IPv6 connection, according to Google.
Much to my surprise that, while it doesn't eork on my XP SP3 box, http://ipv6.google.com/ works fine in IE7 on my vanilla Vista box connected via Verizon (aka the VVV :) The teredo tunneling protocol is suppoosedly built in to Vista by default, but I still find it hard to credit that it works out of the box, and supposedly it's in XP SP2 too, so that can't be it. I had tested a sample video stream mentioned on nanog last week (it's supposed to go full screen PAL @ 1.5mpbs if you have IPv6 - otherwise it's 320x240 @400kpbs ) with no joy - http://master.nacevi.cz/ct24v6.asp I note that the intriguing http://www.ipv6experiment.com/ is yet to go onstream.
