As Synamon said, all of the Kindle models are entirely different beasts. If you have a Kindle 4, and if you are into modifying your device in some way (jailbreak, additional software etc.), make sure that you only attempt with packages specifically labelled with your particular Kindle version. That's usually something like "Kindle4", "K4", or "K4NT" (stemming from "Kindle 4 non-touch", because the Kindle Touch - actually version 5 - was initially thought to be a variant of version 4) in the developer's corner.
Steer clear of anything that says "K5", "KT", "Kindle Touch", "Kindle 3", "K3", "Kindle 2" etc. here in the forum -- these softwares will normally not work on your device!
If you're shopping at Amazon, that's a completely different thing. If Amazon says something is ok for your device, it usually is (simply because Amazon knows which device(s) you have).
