Screen upgrades for T400s?

I have a T400S and the viewing angles on this are among the worst I've seen in a very long time. Is there an aftermarket screen available for these that have the viewing angles and color quality of the T42/T60 Flexview screens?

Unfortunately, no.

Bummer! I'd gladly fork over a bundle to get a really good screen in these - it would make the T400S the closest thing I've ever seen to a perfect laptop.

Ditto on the T410s.

I just found this. Apparently they're using 14.1" IPS panels.

There must be a way to find out what panels are being use for this and checking to see if they can be used in the T410s.

IPS displays are made by LG-Phillips and IPS Alpha, a joint venture between M a t s u s h i t a and Hitachi. Not sure if there are any other manufacturers of IPS panels.

Ditto - the search for a worthy LCD is on!
