   Interesting. With a he.net tunnel you have a fixed IPv6 prefix and that has   
   its advantages. With native IPv6 you may have a (semi) dynamic prefix. Your   
   milage may vary. Other than that I find native IPv6 much preferable ove a   
   tunnel. He,net offers a fantastic service for a very attractive price, but a   
   tunnel just can not match native IPv6. At least that is my experience.   
      
   Please keep us posted.   
      
      
   Cheers, Michiel
