As from June 17, the whole of Italy went digital. Televideo (teletext) is available on all channels of RAI TV including RAI 4, RAI Sport 1 and 2, RAI Movie, RAI Premium, RAIyoyo and RAI Gulp. After the World Cup RAI Storia, RAI HD and RAI Extra will also have televideo, which is now 26 years old in Italy!

Here we only have and only need the national TV station and soon we'll go digital. How about having teletext like most other countries? I've written on this subject before and the silence was deafening! It has been tried before from time to time but eventually it was aborted.

Well, I thought abortion was illegal in this country. Wake up, dear Minister, and take a cold shower. You might just realise that you're living in the digital year of Our Lord 2010.
