    Greeeeeeeeeeeeeat... just what we need, more 911 fees for service that doesn't work all the time. Awesome.

    How is it that mobile operators and 911 dispatch centers were so bad at figuring out how wireless phones would affect 911, etc? Seems like there was no foresight on this issue.

    Fantastic...so New York State will divert even more 911 money to other things. Fantastic!

    I like my cell phone bill because it has less taxes and fees than my landline at my house. Now it sounds like this is about to change.

    Glad I don't live in Michigan, I wouldn't want to pay more then I am now.

    Maybe this is a ploy with the IRS on the repeal of the Spanish-American war tax that they have to give up, the states are saying "more for us now".
