Slightly odd Icelandair experience

I hope I'm in the right place for this story. Sorry if I'm not.
I arrived home to Glasgow today on FI430 from a holiday in Reykjavik (recommended, though we didn't manage to see the Northern Lights.) The 757 we went out on last Sunday was fairly well kitted out, with seatback screens, and USB ports, and the plane had winglets (if that is the correct term.) Today's return flight was on a much more basic 757 (maybe TF-FIW?) without winglets, and the inflight movie was on CRT TVs above the aisle. I was sat in row 13 with my wife, and found the safety instruction odd. There was a message that passengers in the at the overwing exits undertook to be able to open these exits if required, but this plane didn't have overwing exits! And there was the message about lifejackets being under your seat, but they weren't, there were panels in the ceiling marked "lifejacket inside - push".
Anyway, safely home. I know I'm a bit pedantic on these points, but interested in any comments.
