The world is running out of IPv4 addresses, but this time we mean it! ;)

It has been well known that IPv4 addresses were getting scarce for years. Yet I don't see many IPv6 capable products at my local electronics store. My ISP isn't looking to switch. I hear a lot of lip service about the importance of this IPv4 addresses shortage, but I just don't see a lot of concrete steps being taken to make the move to IPv6. What gives?
