This really depends on what your going to be using it for and the available space you have. If your hooking it up to a DVD player then a Widescreen would be a big plus. If not it would still be good but not as necessary. There are a few cheap widescreens now availiable for under $1000 but they are not flat screen. and they tend to be fairly small. Rear Projection is definelty the cheapest way to get as big as possible screen but the quality can be inferior and generally only perform at their best in a darkend room. ie not your living room. Plasma screens are really just a wet dream. I mean this is a toyota forum, not a Merc or Jag one. If you go to buy a Flat screen CRT TV take a laser pointer with you. To test if it is actually flat, shine the laser pointer at the the screen holding the laser perpendicular to the screen. The light should reflect straight back at you. If it doesn't then it isn't a true flat screen, probably just a regular one behind a flat peice of glass. The only True Flat screen TV's (not counting some of the really expensive ones) that I've seen where a Sony and a Philips, all others where just BS. Digital TV is pretty much Crap as you described it. It was a flop in every other country they tried it in, way before Australia. If you want HDTV then get a set top box, as the format changes so frequently at least with a set top box you don't have to replace your whole tv, just get the box updated.
