But seriously, just about every portable DVD player on the market has a 16:9 screen, as do many current laptops. Even the GBA and GBA SP have close to a 16:9 aspect ratio, causing some people to speculate before it's release that there'd be some sort of DVD peripheral. Man, that was a long time ago...
Yes, the PSP's screen is gorgeous. But let's not go overboard.
