NEC E201W

Does anyone know what panel is used in NEC's 20" 1600x900 E201W? It is identified as TN, but has 178 degree viewing angles listed all over the place.

I've never seen NEC list a non-IPS panel as 178 degrees; even most PVA are listed at 176.

The user manual lists the viewing angles as 170/160, more typical of TN.

tftcentral's panel search shows a TN panel

I figured when the manual showed those viewing angles. An unfortunate error for NEC, both on their site and at Newegg.
