Few people will argue that Apple's iPad has put a serious kink in the plans of ereader companies, and devices such as Amazon's Kindle now have to re-think how they'll market themselves.

Secondary displays aren't a new sector; for just over a year now, select companies have been offering smaller, USB-connected displays that help give desktop and notebook owners a little bit of extra screen space, and given that these are mobile, you can tote them easily and use them on multiple computers.

IPS may not mean much to the common man, but to a tech enthusiast, it says a lot.
