There is nothing wrong or inferior with the existing PD technology in fact in some ways may be better. The only reason that they are moving to CR is the injection timing can be altered to reduce emmisions even further. They also didn't want to spend the money on developing two different systems.[ref. article in TDI club]
The new Tiguan at the motor show & featured in the new Volkswagen Magazine features CR for the 103TDI.

Can't find it now. I reckon it was at least 2 years ago when I bought my Golf.
Heres the home page link, you may want to poke around. I can't even recall which section it was in, it may have been under TDI news.
