I'm thinking of a new Paperwhite, but are the any rumors about any new versions? The current version was released almost a year ago now.

I saw that Nook had increased the resolution even further than the Kindle now. But I want to be able to read my Amazon-purchased books.
You must be referring to the Nook HD tablet, which does have very high resolution, and yes, you can put the Kindle app on it and read your Kindle books. It is a back lit LCD screen however, unlike the Kindle Paperwhite. You can get the 8gb for $129 which is an absolute steal. But if you want a front lit eink reader, you might consider a refurbished Paperwhite, or wait for the new release, which I have not seen any rumors for, yet, but which many people expect will be in September.
