Yeah, I would say they were just ridiculously priced to begin with really.
If you really have more money burning a hole in your pocket, you can get basically the same panel with slightly better speakers (for a monitor) here:

It's a monitor, so they're still shit speakers, but hey.
But if you have that kind of money, you may as well just get: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Dell-U2913WM-Widescreen-2560x1080-DisplayPort/dp/B00ADHLSMO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1453141413&sr=8-1&keywords=Dell+UltraSharp+U2913WM
This looks like a better deal.
The 21:9 aspect ratio is for ultra-widescreen monitors like this with a resolution of 2560x1080 or a similar proportion.
If you have a standard 16:9 format screen (1920x1080, 3840x2160) then you'll get black bars across the top and bottom of the screen since you're not using that part. If you want to play with that ultra-wide aspect ratio, but don't want the black bars, then try using windowed mode or a borderless windowed mode (there's third-party software available for this if a specific game doesn't support it).
Here are some:
£620 Dell U3415W, IPS, 34", 1440p
£365 Dell UltraSharp U2913WM, IPS, 29", 1080p
£694 Samsung S34E790C, VA (almost IPS), 34", 1440p, curved
£360 Samsung LS29E790C, VA (almost IPS), 29", 1080p, curved
£317 Asus MX299Q, AH-IPS (almost IPS), 29", 1080p, curved
They all have a response time of 4-5ms which is not bad at all.
The Samsung S34E790C is the most expensive, but I think it looks neat. VA is not quite as good as IPS, but it's still much better than TN.
The Dell U3415W is a very popular ultrawide monitor.
