Description André Klapper 2006-05-17 19:05:13 UTC 
TTY is unclear. at least to me. ;-)

#: ../addressbook/libebook/e-contact.c:150
msgid "TTY"

e-contact.c code:

ATTR_TYPE_STR_FIELD (E_CONTACT_PHONE_TELEX, EVC_TEL, "telex", N_("Telex"),            FALSE, EVC_X_TELEX,     0),
ATTR_TYPE_STR_FIELD (E_CONTACT_PHONE_TTYTDD, EVC_TEL, "tty",  N_("TTY"),           FALSE, EVC_X_TTYTDD,    0),

no idea at all.
went to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TTY, and now i guess that this means "Teletypewriter". not sure, though; so this isn't easy to translate.

if it is "Teletypewriter", who uses this? it's "largely obsolete" according to wikipedia.
