Ask HN: The IPS LCD revolution, what monitor do you suggest for a startup?

It’s been sometime since Atwood posted the IPS LCD revolution [1] and the followup to that [2].

How has the scene changed since last July? Have the prices come down? Which is the most value option out there I can buy from taobao, 360buy etc? Are there any major flaws in these LCD’s?
