I think this is huge. Early HD adopters are more likely to be techy-scifi types and/or sports buffs. It's definitely another notch in the HD-DVD belt.
Just because they *remaster* the original show, doesn't mean they are going 16:9 per se. Perhaps black bars with crystal clear 4:3 action? They may be cropping the top and bottom to fit 16:9 but adjusting the crop frame-by-frame (cut out just the bottom, just the top, etc) to include the most important details perhaps of each frame.
