Hi,

   Can you please provide complete details on why you believe that to be  
true (where did you get your information from, and did you check it  
against the latest Entrez Gene to be sure). We have documented our  
sources (see for example hgu133plus2 documentation).

   They are the same? Sorry what did you check?

   If it is, it will be fixed. And for sure lots of annotation will  
change in the next release (it is constantly being updated).
