Great Caesar's Ghost! DIRECTV is Offsite!

Visitors to CES looking for DIRECTV are in for a surprise...the satellite TV provider isn't here at the convention center. This year, our collaborator in automotive satellite TV elected instead to create "The DIRECTV Experience" in a large ballroom at that Las Vegas mainstay, Caesar's Palace. While we've had a TracVision in the DIRECTV exhibit each of the last few years, it's never been on display quite like this:

Yes, that's a real TracVision A7 mounted on a photo of a minivan

Apparently, DIRECTV's original plan called for literally slicing a minivan in half and mounting it to the wall. I guess the picture of the minivan with a real roof rack and TracVision A7 was apparently viewed as slightly more practical, not to mention easier to install!

Almost feels like you're riding along, enjoying live DIRECTV in the car, doesn't it?
