Yeah, if i was in a position to buy a set as a defacto DVD/laserdisc display it would be a 16:9. But for me, it would have to display 4:3 and some PSX games as well (although some newer PSX titles have 16:9 display options as well, i noticed...). I may have the itch to upgrade my set in the next year or two, and i'm hoping that Sony's successor to 53XBR200 will have the vertical height adjust that they've incorporated in their new Wega XBR250 direct views. Best of both worlds, anamorphic display capability AND still 4:3 for most current cable/air programming. Shaw broadcasts movies in letterbox? Are you talking some of the PPV? I know i've seen the occasional lbx on Showcase or Bravo.... My biggest beef right now with Shaw is the decrease in picture quality on the compressed channels on their digital service....
