seems that the maker of these items seized upon the expired trademark 
Teletype, altering it into TeleType.. Fine, but i'd like to know WHY? 
They don't "type" anything anyhow. Why would they want a name that is at 
best meaningless to their products and at worst very confusing? Their 
website says they were founded in 1981 and "specialize in software 
system integration", so they must have started with another name.
