Nope. They have all been TN so far. Just better quality TNs. I've been wishing for an IPS on a Macbook for years. Looks like this update didn't bring any change to that matter.


I believe the last commercially available IPS laptop was the think pad t43p. The actual plant making 15" IPS panels shut down. (EDIT: wow, thank you! (I forgot about the T60p, but that's also discontinued; the HP EliteBook having a 17" is amazing though...I may have to get one of those!)


"I believe the last commercially available IPS laptop was the think pad t43p."

There are one or two commercially available -- see here: http://www.anandtech.com/show/4049/hp-elitebook-8740w-ips-on...


The T60p also had one, and the Thinkpad tablets at least through X200t had an IPS (Flexview) option. It doesn't appear to be an option on the more recent tablets.


The x61 tablet had one, too. One of the many reasons I stuck with that machine as long as I did.
