Again, where're the compelling IPv6-only content/apps/services?
To answer your rhetorical question, http://www.kame.net/ has a dancing kame. To my knowledge, that's the most compelling IPv6-only content. Unsurprisingly, this does not drive user adoption, and major sites won't add IPv6-only content while a significant fraction of users are v4-only.
Recently, due to IPv4 scarcity some large mass hosters (OVH, and soon Hetzner) have started to charge for IP use, with pricing probably moving from current 1 EUR/IPv4 address/month to somewhere 2-5 EUR/IPv4 address/month. This price pressure both allows an efficient use of existing networks (by forcing customers to relinquish unused resources) and also will drive adoption of IPv6-only models, as these addresses remain free, for time being.
