Delta Air Lines 757 with Winglets?

I recently flew in a Delta 757-200 with winglets (N650DL) that was still painted in the old livery. Can anyone tell me how many aircraft like this fly? Also how much longer will it be until they are painted?

1. Delta currently is largest 757-200 aircraft operator in the world with a total of 169 operating as well as 16 757-300 extended range that they acquired from the Northwest merger. Only 39 of their 757's have the blended winglets that you noticed on your flight. Eight of the 757-200's are still painted in the old livery from 2006, and 143 have been painted into the new widget theme. There are a couple that have special liveries for breast cancer awareness and a special sky team paint job. FYI, not all of their 757's seat the same amount of people. They are configured based on whether they are flying transatlantic, transcontinental, or shorter routes.
2. Only eight are still painted in the old livery.
