LG claims that it uses s-IPS panels in all of its new range of LCD TV including the LH20 series. However, there is a small * somewhere in the official news which indicates S-IPS panels have be employed only for 32"+ models

Ok, usual marketing BS. But, they just took it a notch higher. In the official LG website, the 22" model 22LH20 LCD TV claims to have a 10-bit panel and achieve 178/178 viewing angles. However, it does not mention using an S-IPS panel.

So, is it just a TN panel with hyped up specs? I haven't really heard of a 10-bit TN panel. Can it actually achieve 178/178 viewing angles? Is it by any remote possibility an S-IPS panel?
