This isn't the answer you're looking for, but... I was very interested to
see a CNET article that DoD has announced a concrete interest in deploying
IPv6 over the next five years.  If that is indeed the case, you're going
to see a lot more support for IPv6 from vendors, etc.  On the other hand,
I can't tell you which ISPs in the US would provide IPv6 support... :-)
