Does anyone remember the Teleconference Screens in Epcot for Dinner Reservations?

I think that was pretty advanced tech for it's time.. any idea how long ago that was removed?

I do remember them..I beleive it was 1984 or 86 when we used them...they were under Spacehip Earth or near there and then there were other kiosks on the Gateway to FW I beleive....we used them to eat at restaurant in Mexico and did not enjoy the meal so we have never returned to that restaurant...many trips since them(after we purchased dvc in 1994). Fun to remember!

I thought they were in a kiost opposite Germany?

I remember using the ones along the walkway from FW to WS.

I remember the ones at the end of the Spaceship Earth ride...as a kid I got a real kick out of it, and it was a tradition for our family to walk up to them and get dinner reservations at either Rose and Crown or San Angel Inn...can you imagine getting day of reservations anywhere these days??

They were still there for my very first trip to WDW, about 15 years ago. They vanished shortly after. Along with those confusing park passes with all the plus options.

I remember watching my parents make the dinner reservations! At that time, I think day of was the only option! How things have changed...

Yes we used them on our first and maybe second trip '89 and '90 as I recall they were in a lobby like area near SpaceShip Earth. Those were the days

I remember them too! Couldn't tell you when though.

I remember them on my Senior Trip- '85. Lots of classmates ate at cool places and we had burgers in FW. I was so mad. That was the last time I went to WDW without a plan.

We went in 88 I think and I remember using them. It is crazy now to think about getting same day ressies at the WS restaurants. We ate at the Rose & Crown and I had fish and chips - I remember like it was yesterday.
