I've been researching a new TV purchase. I think I've ruled out plasma (nice aesthetics but otherwise lacking?) and projection TV's (too big) and hdtv (?)...so what I'm looking at are flat screen 32" and 36" as well as the 34" widescreen (16:9) models. It seems to me that you pay a premium for the widescreen, and if you put a 4:3 picture on it that's really only about 27" diagonal. Will 4:3 be obsolete in a couple years? Or is 16:9 just a trendy fad? I'm a big sports fan - is 16:9 useless for sports broadcasts? My wife likes movies - is a typical vcr movie (no dvd yet)4:3 or 16:9? Thanks - Eric H
