My copy from Hivizone just came in (on my birthday no less!), and since I don't see a review of the NTSC version, here is mine.
It comes in a very nice cardboard container a little bit taller than your average DVD container. Nice cover, and the two CD jewel cases feture Obi Won on one, and Maul on the other.
The video looked great on my 27 inch, with some pixelation here and there. But sitting on my couch a good 10 - 12 feet from the tube, the picture really looked far better than my friends VHS version.
The sound is not 5.1, but it does a decent job with just the left to right type of effects, with speech coming from my center.
The only draw back for me was that it is on two CDs and there is no chaptering available.
All in all, I am glad to have this version over the VHS. It will last me until we finally see a real DVD version from Lucas sometime next year(s?).
