Actually, if we're talking about the Techcrunch article, I can at least confirm that they at least didn't pull the hardware specs completely out of their ass. We've known for quite a while (as far back as when the K4 was released, IIRC) that Amazon was testing prototypes with ambient light sensors, proximity sensors and/or weird haptic stuff, and different screens. The codename mentioned in that article (icewine) is also genuine.

A very minor amount of digging into a firmware image will tell you that much.
