Could this be Apple's solution to the iPhone letterboxing issue?

As things stand, empty voids at the top and bottom of an iPhone or iPad display come as standard with every widescreen video you might care to watch — a problem that almost persists with the iPhone 5, since that phone's elongated panel is still a few pixels off 16:9.
