[CentOS] IPV4 is nearly depleted, are you ready for IPV6?

I have a question about how IPV6 interacts with the switches in the
local network.  Right now, my sub $50(US) gigabit switch from any of
several vendors keeps an arp table to determine which switch port a
message will use.  With the huge address space available with IPV6, how
is that going to work, and when am I going to get a cheap soho switch
that can handle IPV6?
