Well.  It's not like the 861 is an old product - there's 800 series
routers that are much older and do IPv6 just fine, like the 836...

So this is more like "how can a vendor position themselves as 'premium
vendor' and 'we do IPv6 everywhere!' and at the same time design a 
product in, what, 2005?, that cannot do IPv6?"

It's not like this is a Linksys US$ 30 box...
