A pull-out keyboard in the base? I have one too. Would be perfect if

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.

Televideo made small terminals, PT102 and "Personal Terminal". I found a pic
