Telnet spotting is built into all of the major contest logging 
software - there is no hardware difference unless you want to 
reopen the argument whether computer logging should constitute 
a separate entry category.  

How about other hardware like memory keyers, voice keyers, or 
panadapters?  Should they be the basis for separate entry 
classifications since you are so concerned about like vs. like?  
What about memory keyers, voice keyers and panadapters built into 
the transceiver?
