My home network has been fully functional on IPv6 for about 4.5 years.
IPv6 is used whenever possible, whether on my local LAN or out to the Internet. My own IPv6 subnet has about a trillion times the entire IPv4 address space. I haven't used all those addresses yet. ;-) What would happen if you went IPv6-only? Does your provider do some 6to4 trickery? No, as mentioned earlier, my firewall is openSUSE 13.1. While there may be such "trickery" available, I haven't heard of it. So, if I want to access my IPv4 only devices or web sites, I have to run dual stack.
Comcast is a major U.S. ISP. They're in the process of switching their entire network to VoIP and when IPv4 is needed, they'll use 4in6 tunnels and carrier grade NAT to access the IPv4 only Internet sites.
Sorry for the typo. That should read "switching their entire network to IPv6".
The same comcast who is a backbone for spam accross the internet.
