Robert,
I would like to vote against doing this, because it would mean that we could only
watch _either_ teletext _or_ tv/recordings. What I like very much about the analog
videotext is the fact that I can read it "in front of" the tv programme (even
transparently, so that I can still see what's going on while quickly looking
up the latest news or so).
Just my two cents...
Greetings
Klaus
