Yeah, 16:9 is the standard for all HD releases. Anamorphic only exists for DVD and if the film is 2.35:1, it also contains black borders. If you played an anamorphic DVD or Blu-Ray of a 2.35:1 film on the TV in your link (which is really rare) you would have to zoom in to get rid of the boarders. And if you wanted to watch a film that is 16:9 on it (or basically any TV program) you'd have to either zoom it in and crop the top and bottom or watch with black boarders on the sides.
