Erm, no, IPv6 doesn't require a new network from scratch.  IPv6 can (and
currently does, in some places) run tunneled inside IPv4, and ultimately
current IPv4 addresses could simply become a tiny subsection of the IPv6
address space.

Instead of 4-byte network addresses, you have 8-byte addresses.  So one
easily fits in the other.

For more information see:

http://www.ipv6.org/

I'll agree that more financial incentive is needed for IPv6 to get
traction, though.
