What new product are you referring to? The 777/787 fleet have the Dream cabin which is what the A330's are getting. And yes, all of the A330's presently in service have the new cabin (2 frames). 931-933 are stored (original cabin) and 935-939 are being refurbished. The SQ birds are all either refurbished, flying in cargo configuration, or being refurbished. It seems likely that the refurbished frames will be ones returned to service first.
