I have a 17 inch widescreen LCD monitor.. The resolution on my system is set to 1280x768 (which basically is like a 19 inch monitor with a shorter screen height) For both EQ and EQII the game adjusts fine to this new resolution (ain't DirectX great?) .. I did have some rendering problems with EQ when I first changed to a widescreen resolution, but an updated video card driver fixed that. Anyway, in EQII you simply turn off the letterbox effect and the black bars go away.. You then have a true widescreen image in EQII .. of course your UI elements are then on top of that image.. *shrug* .. I'm sure you could turn the letterbox on even with the widescreen resolution, but why would you?
