Note - there's also significant progress on the front (at least from some of the providers):

26 Nov 2013 - <http://corporate.comcast.com/comcast-voices/comcasts-xfinity-internet-now-the-worlds-largest-native-ipv6-deployment>

"Today, over 25% (and growing) of Comcast’s Xfinity Internet customers are actively provisioned with native dual stack broadband Internet service.  Native IPv6 support has been deployed to over 75% of our broadband network, and our goal is 100% in early 2014."
