The new Xbox 360 controller is starting to become available in local stores, at least I think so.
Is there any way I can identify the new controller, either by looks or a serial number or something?
I've seen pictures of it, and it looks like it has a new silver finish, and uncolored buttons, is this the only controller that has those features?
Basically I'd like to know how I can identify it so that I can avoid purchasing an old controller and not discover it until I get home and can open it.

While you can identify it by looking at the new d-pad, and easier way might be to look at the colors. The new controller is entirely made up of shades of gray. I think this is the only controller where the buttons aren't the standard colors.
Amazon categorizes the controller under silver, so that might help you identify it as well (although I don't recall if the packaging lists it as silver or not).
