Yes, that might work.
It will enabe you to connect NES to HDMI, but does remove the borders I can't tell.

Is there any device you can tell if borders will go away?

Nope.

NES outputs only composite (and RF).
To use this you'l need someting that outputs Component signal either thru red/green/blue RCAs or VGA.

Basically all it does is digitize the signal and makes it easier for the HDTV to under stand it. It should be fine. Just be careful of buying from Ebay.

I can't guarantee anything, but the second device you showed (the one I said should work, not the one scarmullet quoted) is pretty good bet.

So your TV does not have zoom button? that should remove the borders without any extra hardware.
If no Zoom button, do consider is it cheaper / easier just to buy new TV.
HDTVs have come down in price big time.

Just to verify Arseen, this is my best bet:

Funny thing about my tv, when on video mode, zoom is not an option, only on hdmi mode.
