I'm pretty sure the old ones were Dione keypads - they were dark grey, quite blocky in style, and with an old-fashioned looking screen. The keys on them were also really prone to wearing out, especially the zero key for some reason.

The new ones are much sleeker looking, but look as though they have equally dodgy keys. I can't find a picture of them though.

As an aside, I was in a Tesco store recently when the staff were going around disconnecting all the chip and pin readers and weighing them. I overheard them chatting at the customer service desk, and they weren't sure why but they were looking for any which didn't weigh the same as the rest.
