Umm, this confuses me now. 640x480 is not 16:9, it's 4:3.
And 960x234, this is neither 4:3 or 16:9, this is not even cinemascope, this is something undefined.

View angle and aspect ratio are not the same. Aspect ratio describes the height and the width, like 4:3 and 16:9. View angle is the angle that you look at your monitor. That is important when you want to get a TFT. In your case it seems to be a synonym for aspect ratio, though.

Say, where did you get that information and what is it related to ? Maybe DivX AVis or something similar ?

never seen anything with 960x234 and dont know anything about mobile tv's but since both models are made by the same company i think its a safe bet that the more expensive model is the "better" one.
