I seriously doubt that, not without FCC approval.. more likely they will convert TTY support into the computer system.

The problem is technical limitations DO exists, the TTY uses Baudot while the rest use ASCII and other machine languages and those language do not understand Baudot at all and in no way will work with them.

I will NEVER buy another TTY again. Like I said in the past, TTY did served us well, and its time to move on.
