The FCC is working on plans to allow texting, picture, and video communications with 9-1-1 centers. It will require a revamping of the system from circuit-switched to IP based technology. That, of course, isn’t going to be cheap. We’ll see if Congress supplies the funding for such a rebuilding of the system.
This should be fun. If it ever happens here, I’ll keep you updated.
