I think any apparatus for making coffee from grounds is technically a percolator, so you can still call any boring old coffee maker that.
Percolator is just the kind that has the grounds basket sitting on top of that hollow tube that the boiling water comes bubbling up through. Read all about it.
Coffee is a percolate; thus, anything that makes coffee from grounds is a percolator. "Percolator" as name for the kind of percolator we all know and love is a special usage. Me thinks.
the link Faldo gave was interesting reading, even for one that doesn't ever drink the swill.
"It is virtually impossible to make a decent cup of coffee with a percolator."
