There are four finders now.
V8 Finder, V71, Yellow panel. Obsolete.
V8 Finder-meter, V73, Grey panel. Support likely stopped.
V8 Finder Pro, Wide screen. Current.
and the new V8 Finder2, Green panel, New.

The Finder-Meter has newer satellite formats etc.
The Finder Pro has encrypted channel support, USB movie watching and YouTube.
The Finder2 is an update for the Finder-meter, but sadly has a smaller battery, 3.7V, that hinders the finder.

The finders sold by GT Media can be found here on their site.

Thanks, I'd like to know more about the difference of "V8 Finder-meter, V73, Grey panel" and "V8 Finder2, Green panel". Apart from the battery, what has V8 Finder2 updated? The site http://freesat.cc/collections/gtmedia does not list V8 Finder2.
