"With all UltraSharp monitors featuring the IPS panel, LG Display and Dell formed a
joint IPS camp and agreed to pursue strategic IPS co-promotion with the goal of
conquering the global LCD monitor market. The co-promotion will encompass the
creation and use of IPS toolkits, online promotions, public relations, and joint efforts to
spur demand." - LG Display Monthly
So, I'm thinking that IPS as a brand is pretty unstoppable right now. It seems to have destroyed Samsung in the WVA monitor market, leaving Samsung to react with PLS. Even the supposed C-PVA ST2310WA is missing from the market.
It is clear that LG wants to differentiate and promote its IPS product toward consumers with services like Twitter and Facebook. Steve Jobs has already explicitly differentiated the ipad as being IPS. The intent is quite clear.
It will be interesting to see how customers react in the future, and whether there will be a boom for cheap WVA monitors under common brands. As for Skynet style domination of Dell monitors? No thanks.
