No, mine did NOT have a pull-out or fold-down kbd, it was all one piece,
like a micro-miniaturized ADM3 or similar terminal. Possibly it WAS the
same as the picture on the Wikipedia article, I couldn't tell the scale
from that pic.

Something like the iXO handheld
terminal?

No, it WAS a Minitel. The Wikipedia picture gives nothing
for scale, but there is a picture of one on a Google
pictures collection that shows it on a desk with a regular
keyboard and LCD screen, and you can see how small the thing
really was.
