    Are you sure they are on the outside? the reason I ask is that Samsung had a 'smudge' issue with their DLP screens on some models that looked like black fingerprints but they are on the inside of the screen. If so, service should replace it.

    Other than that, I am not sure. I just wiped it down.

    Sounds like the dreaded smudge to me. I had a couple of them and Samsung replaced the screen. It's perfect now. I would give them a call. can you post a pic?

    I don't know if they would show up in a pic,you can't see them unless the screen is a darker color or off.I do have the 3 year in house warranty though.
