Personally I think the major resellers such as Level3 will see this as
a revenue maker and offer it as a value added service.  They are
looking for every way they can to squeeze revenue out of their
operations.

I also think most people forget that for most business applicatons,
the additional cost of E911 isn't going to make a dent in anything. 
So you pay an extra $3 a month per line/channel/DID/whatever.  If you
are pushing a lot of call volume, that extra cost is miniscule.
