I can't really say what would be best for you, but I do know what if I were in the market for a flat-screen monitor right now I'd go for a widescreen. Here's why ...
My computer is basically my multimedia center. I do have a TV, but I only use that to watch live TV on. I download and watch lots of episodes that I missed on live TV (more and more of which are being broadcast in widescreen these days). Ditto for anime and movies; all new anime is pretty much widescreen and movies are exclusively widescreen (unless you buy the crappy pan-and-scan DVDs, but I don't).

It's the right choice for me.
Of course, I already have a 20.1" standard flatscreen, and I can't really justify an investment to spend another $350 to replace it with a 20" widescreen flatscreen; that's not worth it. But when I finally do need another monitor I will be getting widescreen.
