I am the owner of the Fidelity CC1 with the plastic pieces and blue manual. Here is a link to Ismenio's excellent site that shows a picture of the plastic pieces and the blue manual compared to a regular CC1 manual. You need to move down the page some to get to these pictures.
If anybody has any comments, please post them.
