PN50B850 vs PN50B860
by bohoops - 7/6/09 1:13 PMDoes anybody know the difference between these two items PN50B850 vs PN50B860. The Samsung web-site specs show that they are identical. I called Samsung and spoke with a tech who told me there was nobody there who knew the difference and that there is no customer/sales support, just technical support. I can't imagine calling a company and being told that there is nobody I can speak to that knows anything about their products. Amazing!!!
Not totally identical

The 850 has one of its four HDMI ports on the side. 860 has them all in back. The 860 has 2 x USB connections while the 850 only has one. Very subtle differences I see anyhow. To some folks this type of thing does matter though.

Another difference
