The 350 outputs a 4:3 television signal via s-video. You can display it on a 
16:9 set in stretched mode, like any other s-video source. What 16:9 streams 
are you hoping to have it display? It can't handle HD streams, but there are 
patches out there for mplayer, so you can play back DVDs with it, and there 
are switches you can throw at mplayer to tell it the display is 16:9, despite 
the 4:3 resolution.
