Or even an Australian one (or two or three) like:
   www.ipv6now.com.au
   www.anchor.com.au
   www.internode.on.net

... and many more.

There's a neato Firefox plugin called IPFox which displays a green six
or red four in the toolbar, depending on whether you have reached a page
by v6 pr v4. Useful (though sometimes confused by complex content). I'm
sure there are similar things for Chrome/Chromium, Safari, Opera, IE
etc.
