when I last used this feature of telnet it was true, but also:
on Solaris and cygwin you can use the -e option to specify the 
escape char.  From the cygwin one:
15:13:55$ telnet --help

telnet [-a][-e escape char][-f log file][-l user][-t term][host [port]]
 -a      Attempt automatic logon. Same as -l option except uses
         the currently logged on user's name.
 -e      Escape character to enter telnet client prompt.
 -f      File name for client side logging
        [...]
