I kind of doubt that you will find commercial IPv6 service today. Speaking
without certainty, the 6Bone is so far an experimental arrangement, vendors
are unlikely to sell access to an experiment (that they don't completely
control).
Another part of the infrastructure still needed to be upgraded is DNS.
There are no DNS servers (in general release) capable of supporting IPv6 in
full. ISC is working on BIND version 9, and that won't be out (for
testing) for a few months yet. It will have support for A6 records.
IMHO.
