airbus 330: comfort of business seats?

Is there a big difference between the comfort of business class seats on airbus 330-300 vs 330-200. This is a code-share US Airways/Lufthansa flight from Phila to Germany. (One flight goes to Frankfurt, one to Munich; I guess other things being equal, Munich would be the better place to transfer for Istanbul flight?)
Thank you.

There are many different business class seats on A330s. It's up to the individual airline to chose the seats.

Is it a USAir or Lufthansa metal?

I believe the ONLY difference between USAir's 200 and 300 is that the 300 has first class. The business class has the same seats on both models.

US does not offer 1st class on any of its trans-Atlantic flights.

perhaps you are correct and as I have never flown USAir upfront I may be totally wrong, but then explain to me the difference between:

US Envoy Sleeper Class with 94" pitch

and US Envoy Class with 60" pitch

Once upon a time US had first class, but that was a long time ago. They still have the one row of old first class in their Envoy class.
