What is the difference between a Roku Ultra 4800R and a Roku Ultra 4800X?

I bought 2 new Roku Ultra boxes from Amazon within the past 4 months. They seem identical but I've noticed that one of them has the model number 4800R and the other one has the model number 4800X. I'm just wondering if anyone can tell me what I the difference between the two models.

Probably just the remote. They may have different service buttons (Netflix and similar.) The letter after the number typically just means remote differences due to different sales methods. One is general retail, one is online, and RW is Retail WalMart.
