Looking at the dimensions diagram it looks like it's 8.5inches from the bottom of the base to the actual viewable screen. The Vp150 is only 7.5 inches tall so i guess it could go in front if i get a stand that is deep enough. Not sure where the IR receiver is on it though this setup may block it.
I'll probably see what kind of shelf/bracket I can find local to put it above the set. I know that if I put one of my M80's even slightly in an area the edge of the couch blocks i can notice a difference so I think the coffee table will probably block it enough to bug me.
