will the v6 access really be enough to require LB's? or are they there for other reasons (global lb for content close to customers, regionalized content) perhaps reasons which would matter 'less' in an initial v6 world where you were getting the lb's fixed by their vendor? (or finding a vendor that supports v6 lb?)
I am a keyboard jockey for an international online retailer; I picked our loadbalancer solution[0] because of the things it did other than balancing load per se, including cacheing, tcp and ssl session offloading, and content compression. Yes, you could do much of this with apache/mod_proxy but not 'as well'.
Until such devices support IPv6, to reiterate Steve's point, it's not an option to consider approaching connectivity suppliers with IPv6 enquiries.
