Every OS (well except Vista...heh...good!) has a host of telnet clients available for free. Whereas a dialup will require people buy a modem before being able to log on.
And dialup pretty much excludes anyone from other countries, unless they don't mind paying international call rates!
Plus, having a telnet interface makes it available to people with smartphones and PDAs - text-based telnet traffic over a GPRS connection doesn't eat much into a data allowance after all.
Good luck with it, I'll be keen to connect and have a look around!
