Did Giant change the Talon frame between 09 and 10?

I have the offer of one of two cheap Gaint Talons. The spec is rubbish on both but it's the frame I'm more interested in anyway as the reviews sound good.
However, a perusal of Giants site shows some differences between the geometry on the two of them, slightly slacker head angle and longer tt length on the 09 model.
At first I thought the frames were the same and the specs on the site were just a misprint, but the Bikeradar reviews say that the 09 model has a front facing seatpost slot whereas the 10 has a rear facing one - so perhaps they are different?
Does anyone know for certain?

Yes, they updated it as far as I know.
I agree, poor specs on these bikes.0 -
Ah - cheers for that, wonder why they changed it, the 09 frame (on paper at least) makes more sense to me.
Aye shame about the components, as they seem like a really good trail centre bike which has been crippled by poor spec.Less internal organs, same supertwisted great taste.0
