The TN panels they're being compared against there are terrible, though. My Eee (which is otherwise fairly similar: a 10" display at 1024x600) looks fine at those angles. I have seen laptops with displays that are that bad, but it's not the norm, but it doesn't make sense to use them as the basis for IPS-TN comparisons.
