FWIW, www.bing.com resolves to IPv6 addresses from where I'm sitting
(Oslo), and the page seems to load over IPv6 as well.
Also, Amazon provides some form of IPv6 (I believe it's based on 6RD or
something similar though). At least, the NLNOG RING has six
Amazon-hosted nodes, all with IPv6 enabled
(amazon0{1..6}.ring.nlnog.net). All of them respond to ICMPv6 pings from
here. Whether or not the average Amazon customer chooses to enable IPv6
or not is another story, though..
