I watched it again last night and liked it even more. With the help of some others, I've concluded that Tony died as the screen went black. I think the final scene with the music and carefreeness of the Sopranos family makes the ending seem particularly tragic.
I don't think it was a hit man who came in the front door when the bell rang because, when Meadow is running to the front door, no one else is anywhere near it. So, my guess is that the bathroom guy took out Tony at that moment. Assuming that, and watching it again, I got the feeling that the show was Tony, and when he died instantly at the end, you experience what he did--nothing. The show goes black as his consciousness abruptly ends. My mental images of his family's immediate response to his death, to me, are more powerful than if they had actually tried to show it.
