Also, I read that only some of the 777s have newer business class seating and some think that the newer version is easier to sleep in. Is there any way at all to know ahead of time which type of seats I will get?
From my knowledge, there are 3 types of configuration that AF uses on their 777-200ER fleet, one of which is without the 4 F seats. So it could be that your flight will be on one of those aircraft, but I don't know how you could find out that precisely.
IMO both products (old and new business class) are quite good and you should have a good rest whatever product you'll end up with.
