IMHO, this is a mistake. What do large (non-ISP) companies want?
1. Their own address space (because they don't want to be held hostage
by an operator).
2. Multihoming.
As of today, they don't have it. The building of a real v6 backbone is
tied to customer demand, which means money, which means that if the big
guys don't perceive v6 provides what they need they don't jump in, which
means no money.
The day you convince (my personal picks, no business relation)
amazon.com, ebay.com, cnn.com. etrade.com and consorts to go
singledhomed IPv6 with an address that belongs to their transit
provider, let me know.
Michel.
