 In your previous mail you wrote:

   I guess you forget:
   1) Cellular phones, I don't think none of them support or even has plans for
   L2TP.

=> I disagree: L2TP will be heavily used in this context, not for its ability
to run over nearly anything, but for its primary function: extend PPP / move
PPP endpoints.

   2) Lots of low cost CPEs.
   
=> I can see exactly the opposite, for instance L2TP is supported by
the last code on Linksys WRT54G/GS which is the cannonical example of
low cost CPEs.

   Both of this options represent also a big market share.
   
=> L2TP is like PPPoE, a natural and common variation over PPP.
I'd like IPv6 will be the same for IPv4...
