Whats the difference in Hydraulic and Telescopic Forks??

I've come acrossed a couple threads in the last few days that talk about the different forks that was available on some honda utility models. I've read the specs on the old 3ww page and I seen which model have what and now I'm wondering what the difference is and advantages there are between the two.

Anybody know?? Maybe this is a tuffy.

IDK.....

Hydraulics use oil as a damper, telescopes merely get extended (boing boing) like a spring filled with grease; My best guess..............

Hydraulics can be rebuild. I don't think telescopes can be.
