I feel the pain. In fact the reason for me to switch to HD back in the fall of 1998 was simply the desire to get a wide screen TV for my DVDs. Both my HD TVs are also 1080i and I'm about to get a third HD TV but this time 1080p. However, I don't think we'll see anything wider than 16:9 outside the specialty market anytime soon. You may be better off looking at front projection if that's even an option. Otherwise, wait for the next format change in 20-50 years.
