Yes I have one of those Tandy "Videotext" terminals. 
Mine came with a brown leather carrying case.  The
terminal is indeed silver with the chicklet keys.  I'd
have to go pull it up but it looked like a coco 1 to
me but has a Videotext label on it IIRC.  Since I
don't have access to anything that would work with it
I've never tried it out.
