I know the new version of it has yet to bee released, but has anyone seen the Criterion Collection version?
Should I wait for the new widescreen version, or go for the Criterion's?

Both--each features quality extras not found on the other version.
If you are only willing to buy one, you should probably go with the upcoming version, since it will feature a remastered, anamorphic picture.

New 5.1 surround sound
New retrospcetive documentary
Original making-of featurette
What does the Criterion have that this one doesn't?
Audio Commnetary with Anthony Hopkins, Jodie Foster, Jonathan Demme and Ted Talley
Storyboard-to-Film comparison
FBI manual text
"Voices of Serial Killers" text
So, probably the new SE is the one to get; it'll certainly look and sound better, but just like with Spinal Tap, I'm hanging onto my Criterion as well.

I wanted the Criterion Collection mainly because of the "Voices of..." and the FBI-files... 
But of course, at the end, it's the film that's essential!

Thanks guys. I have the criterion, and am happy with it. I will however buy this new version at some point, but it will be a while before I can justify spending the extra dough on it.
