Vizio has announced a slew of new LCD TVs to be displayed at CES, and two of them are products that U.S. consumers have been anticipating for quite a long time: 50- and 58-inch HDTVs with a 21:9 aspect ratio.

Both devices will have a resolution of 2560x1080 pixels and SRS surround sound; the 58-inch model will only have a 120Hz refresh rate, compared to the smaller model's 240Hz.

The TVs will support Vizio's Internet Apps ecosystem in cinema mode, which will enable you to watch 16:9 Full HD content and browse through apps at the same time.

Vizio will also be demonstrating a humongous, 71-inch 21:9 model at CES, but there's no official release date for that one.
