Nobody knows if a new Paperwhite model is even coming out, let alone if it will available in time for Christmas and in the UK. Only time will tell.

If I were to guess, I would say that Amazon is not going to release a new model this year and instead will merge the frontlight system with a Triton colour e-ink screen to bump up the contrast (only 4096 colours, after all). Then they'll release it sometime in Fall 2014 and call it the Kindle Rainbowwhite (KRBW, for short).
