Raise the Red Lantern

Anyone know anything about this version released on June 17, 2006?

It says:
Zhang Yimou's acclaimed Raise the Red Lantern arrives on DVD again, in a new digitally-remastered DVD that's a vast improvement over previous editions. Featuring an all-new 16x9 anamorphic transfer, plus removable English and Chinese subtitles, this could be the best available version of the Zhang Yimou classic yet!

It could only improve on the Razor Digital edition...

Anyone know how the subtitles are improved over the Razor version?

By the way, thanks dleedlee for the screen capture link. That transfer looks stellar!

It's certainly an improvement, but I still don't think it looks great. I almost got the Razor version in the recent DDD 20% off sale until I found out how awful the quality was. Maybe I'll give this one a go.
