On a side note, we should probably open up a reseller program with the IP access we have.
OT: We have no IP problems, our allocations are very big and our Backbone ISP has some of the biggest allocations in Europe.

This seems to be a terribly short sighted discussion. I would think that a group so dependent on IP technology could discuss this question much more intelligently.
The truth is that IPv4 has not been "working" for quite some time and large amounts of resources have been expended in developing ways to "work around" the limitations.
There are many benefits to adoption of IPv6 and several reasons why it is required to advance what we know as the Internet.
More typing is counterproductive here since simply putting the term "ipv6 benefits" into any search engine will provide plenty of reading. For those that cannot get that simple step, start with this link: http://www.ipv6now.com.au/primers/benefits.php

Everything comes at a cost. It's not that we don't recognize that we need to make the switch to ipv6, more than the fact that we recognize that there was misuse of ipv4 space that caused this to occur early, as well as the fact that there's a cost associated with making such a migration across the board.

There are enormous carrier blocks out there still. Most wasted or unused. I have had success in finding a number of them. You also have a lot of companies who are not using their blocks at all (actually they use the upstreams) and you have many defunct companies with /16's and whatever.
The point being, in the early days huge blocks were assigned to anyone who asked. It amounted to great waste. With the advent of all this new technology needing dedicated IP's it's been a game changer. Much like Micro$oft's buy out of Nortel space.BLAZINGSWITCH | sales /@/ blazingswitch.com

Yep, it could be said that anyone continuing to use or expanding the use of IPv4 is guilty of misusing the space.
How can you consider this is early, IPv6 has been around for years?
Everything does come at a cost. Continuing to support IPv4 is very costly. Is this just another case of; "There is never enough money to do it right but there is always enough money to do it over."

Just think of it as a new ipv4, no advantage except being ready for the future.

Really, then auto-configuration capabilities, the death of NAT, increased scalability and flexibility, interoperability and mobility capabilities, built in IPSEC, etc... are not important to you?
Have you considered the disservice you may be doing to your customers?
