AY A340 Differences Question?

Hello,

I'm travelling with Qantas/Finnair in J Class this July, and had a few questions about the differences I'm reading about with some of AY's A340 aircraft.

After flying QF to and from MEL/SIN rtn (on the A380), I'm using AY SIN/HEL/GOT - OSL/HEL/SIN return. Both these longhaul flights are operated with the A340, but it looks like AY have 2 different A340's in their fleet.

The Finnair website mentions very little about these different aircraft, with the only quote I could find being,

"On all Airbus A330-300 and most Airbus A340-300 aircraft, every seat is equipped with a personal entertainment system and screen that the passenger can use, including in Economy Class."

Does this mean on some A340 aircraft there is no inseat video system in J Class? Also I'm guessing the seats are different too, what are they like? Currently I've got 2A/2C in both directions.

Can someone with knowledge about this please let me know what I'm in for.

I've not paid for my ticket yet, and I'm seriously considering changing to all QF or maybe BA thru to Sweden.

On a side note, does AY offer PJ's in J Class?

Hope someone can help me out, and sorry if this topic has been discussed before.

Cheers
