Not recently, but I am pretty sure it was the former and not the latter.
I believe there may be a more recent version too, but that it is not
officially supported.
If the firmware is that old you might want to look at the clockspeed too
- the original ran at 133MHz and not 266MHz as the more recent ones do.
Upgrading the firmware is pretty trivial btw. Use upslug2 from a Linux
box and follow the instructions here:

Better still, get Debian on there!
