Let's all just hope that if it does get immunity from AV vendors that the FBI doesn't use it on some Black hat. This would just lead to disection, a reprogram and possibly the fastest spreading trojan of all time.
I don't think there is a software package I haven't seen for free download on the net, and the FBI is just giving this away to the bad guys, in my opinion.
