I don't live in TV yet so I can't recommend a store but I am sure they set up the bed for you and no, a special frame is not needed.

When I went shopping for one local to where I live, the sales person told me that the mattress would fit on my king size sleigh bed frame and the beds are set up by the delivery men. The delivery guys also make sure it's working correctly before the leave. There's been a few cases (according to the sales person) that the bed had to go back to the factory because it was faulty but a new bed was delivered the next day.

I do know that it's suggested that you purchase the sheets for the bed at the store. Everyone I know who has a sleep number says the sheets are well made and fit perfectly on the mattress. I think they go for about $100 plus for king size.
