ipv6 transit over tunneled connection

Guys,

I've started this thread looking for advice on available options.
There's no doubt in my mind that native connectivity is better than tunnels, 
but unfortunately tunnel is the only way to get me started, 'cause my upstream 
does not support ipv6 (hopefully just yet) and I have no budget for additional 
circuits to ipv6-enabled carrier.
So my question still stands: is anyone aware of a reasonable tunneled ipv6 
transit service (I mean aside from HE tunnel broker)? The load will be really 
light. I don't expect we'll break a few Mbit/s in the nearest future and when 
we do then I guess it'll be the time to look for the native transit.
Thanks,

Michael
