I have no doubt that there are suction cups that can support huge side loads on them. My Mitsubishi Big Screen was carried into the house with 2 suction cups vertically on each side and they didn't slip. The key here is that it was on a 'prefectly' smooth surface (Glossed Burlwood). People out there that are talking about how glass panels are lifted like this are right, BUT.......... once there are small scratches in the plastic where air can leak past the rubber, your suction is gone it is not the same as glass after the first few pushing matches up there.

I agree
