Unless I am incorrect, the EU is far more ahead on IPv6 than we are in 
N.America. Is this correct? My ISP does not feel enough pressure yet to 
make any changes in the very near future.

Tunnelling for me will have to be the only option. I checked around and 
the other local ISP's are pretty well saying the same thing, unless you 
go to the more expensive providers.
