http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2012/11/lgea9321-9.jpg While “ultrawidescreen” 21:9 aspect ratio HDTVs haven’t taken off despite several attempts, LG is bringing the formfactor to the desktop with its new EA93 UltraWide LCD monitor. Measuring at 29-inches with a resolution of 2,560 x 1,080, it uses the extra horizontal space to display not just cinema-style movies, but also side by side video from different sources or up to four different views at once thanks to its built-in software. For connections, it has DVI Dual Link, DisplayPort, or HDMI with MHL support. We got an eyeful of the monitor at IFA earlier this year and you can check out our hands-on video after the break, or take a quick Korean vacation to snag one before they go on sale everywhere else later in the year (you may need a translator as we couldn’t quite decipher the pricetag, but the English press release is after the break.)Gallery: LG 21:9 EA93 29-inch LCD hands-on
