Buffet

I'm not a pilot, but have read the full report.

One thing I found interesting in the report was that the pilots may have mistaken the stall buffet for overspeed buffet (as mentioned in post 308) and yet the report asserts that the A330 doesn't suffer from overspeed buffet.

Is this true for other modern jets? And how many pilots know if their type suffers from overspeed buffet or if buffet is always stall buffet?
