Now that I think about it, you're probably right. For interactive sessions, anyway.
The devices are remote power/reboot controllers for colocated servers. I'm also writing a monitoring application and may incorporate the ability to automate a power cycling for servers and equipment that won't respond to any other type of reset. In that case a non-interactive telnet session from my CF app would be necessary. I did a long search through my CF list archive and came up with a couple of tags, including cfx_telnet and cfx_tcpclient that may prove useful.
