Okay, I went back to Best Buy -- tried to take pictures with my camera phone but they didn't come out too well.
My conclusion. The screen background is the same "whiteness." The fonts on the New Kindle Basic are lighter and have less contrast. These pictures don't show it too well, but my daughter was with me and there was a noticeable difference. The New Basic Kindle comes somewhere between the Kindle Touch and Old Basic Kindle (K4BNT). Not horrible, but the fonts are not as sharp and dark on the NKT as they are on the K4BNT.
(I guess I'll have to figure out some place to host my pictures. I thought I could just upload them.)
Okay, hopefully this works ...

(I should mention that the K4 is in an Amazon Kindle OEM case, so it looks a bit bigger than it would out of the case.)
