It will also require every carrier in NZ upgrading their domestic and international PSTN gateways and not falling back to what's currently in place...

I know at least one who has looked at it, but it's not quite a simple matter of just enabling the feature, the entire network and every point where voice is carried needs to be capable of this. It also wouldn't work inter network.
