In small quantities, and which tie you to particular providers.  Shells of 
companies have been bought (or just claimed) for their large, especially 
pre-ARIN, PI-IP assignments.  To a young ISP, a /16 for example may seem 
like a lifetime supply of IP space, and save the company many thousands of 
dollars (ARIN registration fees) and paperwork hassles.

News of this case has been sent here before (by william at elan.net back in 
July).  Is anything really happening with the case?
