It is neat, but you'll have to go dual-stack rather than pure v6,
because v6 can't talk to v4 and vice-versa.

Not nuts at all - the more content is available via v6 the better. And
you get a head start on the rest of the world. IPv4 allocation pools are
expected to run out sometime in 2011...

PS: www.ipv6now.com.au has some FAQs and HowTos. There is heaps of
information out there...
