12 of the 50 states are two party required. That's almost 25% of the states. I'm sure many manufacturers don't want to touch this for this reason. Also considering one of those states is California, alot of manufacturers probably don't want to touch this.

EDIT: While I see the validity for your need, I do not appreciate the way you assume that those of us who do not need this are idiots, or that we don't know the law. Also I don't see why downranking an entire phone for one small issue is a good idea. That would be like taking a baseball teams win away because they got all their runs from in field hits and didn't hit one home run all game.
