There are no NATs in mobile phones today since there is no use

Let me disagree.
The scenario is a remote location or road warrior where the only
possible/realistic
connectivity is through 3GPP/3GPP2. That may be an intermittent case
when 802.11
is not available.
I'd like to get a 3GPP network attachment on a computer
(PCMCIA/PCI/USB/Bluetooth...)
or 802.11 access point and run a NAT there. It would act as a router
for the rest of my network.
Now, any device within my network that desire to get IPv6 connectivity
will have to go through that NAT.
