> AT&T is still not doing it for Dsl or vdsl. 


That is not my understanding.
http://www.att.com/esupport/article.jsp?sid=KB409112&cv=801,902&title=What+is+IPv6+and+how+will+it+affect+me%3F#fbid=0Cm9JPhO4kk

I know that they have some IPv6 residences.

With IPv6 Launch, participating ISPs have agreed to turn IPv6 on by default.  They aren't stopping at 1% (and have to have very large deployments to even get to 1%).  The only things stopping large ISPs from 100% deployment are time (not enough bodies during maint windows, don't want to change everything all at once), and money (specifically, the cost to replace modems and gateways that will never support IPv6).  I haven't heard anything official from Verizon, but other large ISPs are moving.
Oh, and as Cameron pointed out, mobile providers are moving, too.  T-Mobile is way ahead in IPv6 deployment, but still needs more handsets.  The others need less buggy LTE, which should be RSN.

Content is moving.  Several hosting companies enabled IPv6 for all of their hosted domains last year for World IPv6 Day.  The major CDNs are able to host content over IPv6 now.  In addition to IPv6 Launch, there are some sites showing a significant number of websites available over IPv6, such as http://eggert.org/meter/ipv6.html
and http://www.vyncke.org/ipv6status/
(check again in a month to see how they've changed).

The slow part now is home electronics.  IPv4 is required until Xbox, PS3, Tivo, Blu-ray, Nintendo DSi, and all of those miscellaneous wi-fi devices support IPv6.  Home gateways, in particular, need to be swapped out, and many of them are consumer-owned, not ISP-provided.  Also, WinXP is still ~43% of computers, and unless somebody enables IPv6 on them and ISPs provides private resolvers in private IPv4 address space, they're going to drag the deployment.

My thoughts on how to motivate consumers are in www.asgard.org/documents.html in the TCO of CGN paper (and summarized in the slides).  In short, if ISPs run out of IPv4 addresses, they'll have to buy IPv4 addresses or deploy CGN, both of which cost money.  The consumer will get to decide, based on price.

Evangelizing to them will have very little impact aside from adding an IPv6 address to their source NAT. The organizations in which it does impact are service providers and carriers who rely on address space to light new customers and services.
