I logged into EF to check, and I was surprised to see the number of available seats had gone up (dropped to 4 in F when I was upgraded and now back to 5)??

I checked the seatmap and it looks like a different seatmap then when I picked my seat. This seatmap shows 6 full rows, 2 and 2. I then went to seatguru to see which version of the 757 I was on, and none of them match?? Version 1 and version 3 have 6 rows, but the 6th row only has 2 seats and not 4 (the other side has a closet). Version 2 only has 4 rows.

Anybody know what plane this is or if seatguru is just out of date?

(Oddly enough, when I click on the seatmap on EF, it shows the correct configuration and that it's provided by seatguru)
This will be a refurbished domestic 757 with 24 seats in F. The new seats are similar to the slim 737 F seats.

It appears that Seatguru has the 757 version 1 and 3 as the same layout...which is incorrect.
