His thought is that 10 other states will file suit as well, thus making it 3 billion. However Sprint did just file a motion last week to have the suit dismissed: http://www.kansascity.com/2012/06/14/3659090/sprint-wants-new-york-lawsuit.html The interesting part to me is: The Sprint filing cites a part of the New York law that says the sales tax applies to sales “except interstate and international telephony.” If the above is true, i don't see how NY could ask for tax revenue on interstate calls.
