Not really...that depends on the sensor size. But let's assume that in either case the sensor is capable of decent resolution on a 'standard' snap. In that case I would prefer the 16:9 to the 4:3.
It's better for panoramic landscapes, and you can crop the sides if you want 3:2, 4:3, or square. You keep your resolution. If you crop 4:3 to 16:9, you will lose resolution if you print at the same height.
Out of the camera, I like 3:2 best. Probably because I am so familiar with 35mm cameras. I don't like 4/3 cameras so much for that reason. 3:2 usually allows reasonable composition in landscape or portrait.
