In reality, CALEA is a funding bill; it has very little to do with technology.
There's a lot more to it than that -- there's also access without involving telco personnel, and possibly the ability to do many more wiretaps (have you looked at the capacity requirements lately), but funding is certainly a large part of it. From Section (e) of http://www4.law.cornell.edu/uscode/18/2518.html : Any provider of wire or electronic communication service, landlord, custodian or other person furnishing such facilities or technical assistance shall be compensated therefor by the applicant for reasonable expenses incurred in providing such facilities or assistance. --Steve Bellovin, http://www.research.att.com/~smb
