Vizio is tearing up CES with its new PCs and 10-inch tablet. But it's also announced some new TVs which look pretty sweet, too.

The new 65-inch versions of both Vizio's M- and R- lines feature VIA Plus — the company's customized spin on Google TV. And after some delays last year, it's also offering up three 21:9 "CinemaWide" ultrawidescreen WFHD (2560x1080) models, like that pictured above. They come in sizes of 50-, 58- and 71-inches with 3D and Yahoo! Widgets, bringing the 21:9 aspect ratio to US shores for the first time.

Vizio's current E3D series will also be joined by the M3D series in a 47- and 55-inch model, the latter of which includes a Bluetooth QWERTY remote. There's also going to be an R3D series, which comes with better backlighting.

Prices and ship dates for all the new TVs are still under wraps, but we should be taking a look at these in the flesh real soon. [Vizio]
