Ande and I drove back out to Best Buy tonight to switch the 43" TV for the 49" one. The sales guy said you can't travel with the screen flat in your car or it'll crack. So, we squished that baby into the back seat of my car so it would sit upright. We didn't have an extra 1/2" to get the thing in but, we did it! Got it home and set up. It's so nice, just like the marketing and reviews said it would be. Let the birthday week continue...
