2. Any pics?

We made the mistake a few years ago buying a HDTV online. When we showed up at Circuit City to pick it up, turns out it was almost 200 pounds and wouldn't fit in our trunk! It's a projection TV and back heavy.

Lesson learned.

4. Not yet. They're delivering it tomorrow.

I bought in store, normally something I don't do, because Best Buy had a special that knocked off $300 if you sign up for DirecTV when buying a set. I was going to do that anyway, so I saved a lot of money.

They also threw in a $500 Blu Ray player and 5 movies for free. :)

7. When I got my HDTV last year, I was simply stunned...

...by the fact there was still nothing worth watching on. ;)
