However, many people have lousy home routers, that while claiming to support IPv6, don't always do so in the way one would expect. And that's not the only issue either.
See this article regarding the challenges Yahoo is facing ...

Yes its true that most of these linksys home routers do not support ipv6, as stated in that article those users will have problems and will have to upgrade their hardware. Yahoo's problem isn't really a problem for them its their users that have the problems due to legacy hardware.
It would surprise you to hear that so many so called "enterprise" firewalls don't even support ipv6 yet. The first question out of a companies mouth to a vender is, do you support IPv6? if not then they don't have interest and this is driving venders to start working on it. No one can start utilizing Ipv6 effectively until the hardware required can support it and this is the longest/slowest part to develop.
