When Sally Po is introduced, she talks in a high-pitched, almost little girl-like voice. In later episodes, her voice is far more gruff.

Citations
Heero Yuy: Botched your mission? You couldn't destroy the base and you didn't kill Doctor J and the others.
Duo Maxwell: How 'bout a little sympathy? In any case I'm still glad I decided to come here. I've got good news, your Gundam and mine are being rebuilt as we speak, ya know. I can hardly wait until they're done.
Heero Yuy: Looks like Oz will be keeping up alive for a while. It's a good chance so don't die yet.
Duo Maxwell: Don't worry about me pal, I have no intention of dying that easily. There's the colonies to fight for. Just watch me, I'll become the God of Death once again... but right now, I need some sleep.

Versions alternatives
The version that Cartoon Network shows on its Toonami afternoon segment contains some cuts and changes from the original dub. Enumerated as follows:
Most of the blood is removed.
"Damn" changed to "darn"/"curse"/"blast"; direct references to "kill" changed to "destroy"/"stop"; "hell" removed (changed variously to "darkness", or "heck").
Duo's self referencing as the "God of Death" is changed to the "Great Destroyer".
Episode 7 "Scenario for Bloodshed": When General Septem is shot in mid-air, the bullet going through him is not shown.
Episode 12 "Bewildered Warriors": When Trowa says he wishes he were more like Heero, he responds regarding the self-destruction of Wing Gundam, "It hurts like hell." This is changed into "It hurts really bad."
Episode 17 "Betrayed By Home, Far Away": During an interrogation, Lady Une exasperatedly points a gun at Professor G's head and questions him; this scene is cut.
Episode 23 "Duo, God of Death Once Again": Duo says "What B.S.!" when he sees an OZ representative on TV; "B.S." is removed. Also, an interrogation scene where Hilde questions Duo while pointing a gun at him is edited.
Episode 25 "Quatre vs. Heero": When Lady Une is shot, the bullet is not shown going through her.
Episode 48 "Take-Off Into Confusion": During a swordfighting match, Dorothy runs her fencing foil through Quatre; this is not shown in the cut version. It is made to appear as though Dorothy just scraped him.

Dark, action-packed and full of suspense

I remember seeing the occasional episode of Gundam Wing on Toonami as a kid, but I never truly watched this program. I was given all the episodes on DVD a few years back and finally got round to watching this at the grand old age of 25. Long story short, I am so glad I did! This show was excellent. The story was deep, and I mean DEEEEEP. Each character had its own back story that we slowly learn about as the series progresses. It made us understand more about the main protagonists of the show, along with the enemies. I really felt as thought I knew each of the main characters by the end and it made us feel for them as they had to carry out their respective missions.

The battles were incredible as well. Truly action-packed. The only thing that grated on me was that the Gundams were technically indestructible, being made of "Gundanium alloy". It is sort of reminiscent of Avatar and "unobtainium". That combined with the fact that the other mobile suits (aside from the main ones) were about as useful as star troopers in Star Wars meant that the battles were always one-sided and predictable. Still, lots of explosions made up for this!

All in all, I would highly recommend this show. I am going to start watching the other Gundam series and see if they are as good (if not, better). I have heard good things and I look forward to them!
