Paranoia lol. You're the one doing that with "publically traded". No, it's a simple PR blitz, as used by quite a few companies in the past. And afaik it's utterly and completely unconvincing without at least production samples, if not reviews. That they were unable to show any screens in public at CES is telling, of course, for the timeline of them reaching the market.
And much of the issue with cheaper LCD's is, of course, the CCFL backlighting. Oh, and I'd note that older IPS screens are actually less reflective, which is why they're so hard to view in direct sunlight and they've required a more powerful backlight, which is why takeup of them for mobile devices has been slow before e-IPS came along last year.
