I'm pretty sure Fedora supports widescreen resolutions really well already.

I'm using 1680x1050 on my laptop right now (ATI x1400 mobile, fglrx 
driver, F8); my workstation setup was, until recently 1440x900 (same 
monitor as yours, I think), ATI x800, radeon driver, FC6; current 
workstation setup is 1920x1200, ATI x800, radeon driver, F8.

I've had some problems using FC6's radeon driver with 1920x1200, 
however. Not sure what that was about, most likely outdated drivers 
(instead of updating/upgrading, I decided to reinstall onto a fresh 
partition.
