This may be a silly question But what will the aspect ratio be after the digital conversion in 09?

I'm not much of a videophile, but I am looking at a new tv to replace a mammoth 55" box that is about 10 yrs old. So i was looking in a store the other day and one of the young salesmen told me that everything would be broadcast in 16:9 after the conversion and therefore my old set will be have a smaller picy. Is this true? I hadn't heard that. But there again, I've been out of the loop on this.
