The Trent 1000-TEN engine has become the standard production engine for all Rolls-powered 787s.

http://aviationweek.com/commercial-avia ... milestones

Regarding the first customers:

The Rolls-Royce Trent 1000 TEN engine, which is designed to power all Boeing 787 family members, entered commercial airline service on Nov. 23.

A Rolls-Royce spokesman declined to comment on the identity of the first commercial operator, but three airlines have taken almost simultaneous delivery of Trent 1000 TEN-powered aircraft this week: European LCC Norwegian, Singaporean carrier Scoot and Air New Zealand.

I bet Virgin Atlantic would love to get their hands on some to get their Dreamliners back in the air.

The fan-blades issue is affecting all the airlines operating Dreamliners (only B789s I believe) with Rolls Royce engines, not just VS.

In pictures the 87 to me does not look that big. When i saw the first -8 ( JAL in SFO), I saw it head on as we taxied to the gate and the size of those engines just blew me away. As a side note I was sitting next to a United Captain that was commuting to SFO to fly a 787. He said he loved that plane so much he would take a downgrade to FO to stay on it.

You're right, photos don't do it justice. The -10 especially is a pretty impressive sight. I am fortunate enough to see it often living here in the Seattle area. If you have the chance to fly on the 787, the wing looks really long when viewed from inside, much more so that when viewed from outside in my opinion.

Is there going to be a special colour scheme on this one, as it's already got the registration, Chinese characters and airline name on the fuselage?

I would imagine so. Even the engines are painted the same colour as the fuse, which is a welcome change from the usual white covers. When I first saw the photo I thought it was a transport/production primer.
