Maybe Now I'll go Out and Get the Dratted Things

Never one to turn down a loose buck, Lucasfilm is preparing to release another "limited edition" Star Wars DVD set:

In response to overwhelming demand, Lucasfilm Ltd. and Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release attractively priced individual two-disc releases of Star Wars, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Each release includes the 2004 digitally remastered version of the movie and, as bonus material, the theatrical edition of the film. That means you'll be able to enjoy Star Wars as it first appeared in 1977, Empire in 1980, and Jedi in 1983.

I wonder if they'll clean up the originals, or just do a straight transfer? If the latter, fans may not be as happy as they think they will, as a remastered transfer almost always has better picture quality.
