asterisk users - Sep 2007 - Cisco 7960 or 7960G

Is there more than one version of the Cisco 7960? 

I see some items advertised as 7960 or 7960G, but searching on 7960 only brings
up 7960G info, or ambiguous stuff.

A partial never mind, it appears they are two different models.  Yet the
differences are not readily apparent.

There's both a 7960 and a 7960G (and a 7961 to confuse matters further).

The 7960 is the earlier version. The easiest way to identify it from a picture
is to look at the messages/services/etc. buttons. On the 7960 the words
"messages" and "services" are written on them. On the G,
there's an envelope and a globe on the buttons themselves, and the words
"messages" and "services" are provided on a surround sticker
(one assumes to make internationalization easier).

Apart from the minor cosmetic differences, I don't know if there are any
actual feature differences between them. I've one of each here and I've
yet to find any worthwhile feature differences.
