I can't speak for other operators, but on our side, we are 
unfortunately waiting for some critical pieces of software 
to be available to make IPv6 available. Comments such as 
this one might give you a hint on what's missing (second paragraph):

However IPv6 alone is not a solution to IPv4 exhaustion. 
There's actually a technology that would provides nice 
IPv4 aggregation for TPIAs, but it comes at a price.
