Hi Ernie,
Once a device is released, it typically doesn't undergo much of a hardware transformation during its life cycle. There are of course some exceptions--there have been something like six revisions of the original xbox--but cameras seem to be pretty static once they hit the market. The only significant change most manufacturers make is in terms of the cameras' firmware--the onboard software that dictates how the camera behaves--but new firmware revisions can typically be downloaded from the manufacturer's site and flashed to the camera via a memory card.
On top of that, I don't know of any way to find out from vendors which batch a camera is from. The only instance of something similar that I've heard of involved newegg.com letting customers know which production batch their blank DVD-Rs came from (as some batches were higher quality than others). This doesn't seem to be the case with cameras. You might try contacting the store you'd like to buy from, though, to see if they can tell you.
Good luck!
