Agreed. The four spoke is a little outdated.
Early steering wheel-mounted airbags were much larger, and thus required more surface area of the steering wheel. Modern bags are smaller and thus provide for more flexibility in design, making the 3-spoke on the later models possible.
I owned a '98 and have an '03 now, and much prefer the 3-spoke wheel in my '03.
