Many embedded devices have character mode command interfaces
for status/control through "console" serial ports. The same
interfaces work quite well via telnet.  E.g. you telnet into a
router or printer or whatever to configure it instead of going
the web-page route.  I can manage a usable telnet session on my
PalmPilot.  Trying to do web stuff is generally pretty futile.
