Not anamorphic and mono sound but still a big improvement.

There is also the R2 release:

It's not a bad deal for only $US15 or so.

Have you compared this version to the R2 version available in the UK? The UK version is Widescreen 2.35:1 and is English - Dolby Surround Sound.

And I just checked my copy and I was wrong; it's stereo, not mono.
I haven't seen the R2 version.

I have the R2 (paid $6!
) and it’s watchable, nothing more.
