So should/will I be able to downgrade my PW2 or not? Now I'm confused and don't want to brick it. 
ETA - Is this the "key" - "new model device" - which I guess technically the PW2 isn't one? |
If you can decide on which model you have (or will get) - maybe.

As in:

^^ see the _kb in the url?
Which Amazon calls (or called) "new basic kindle"
Now you are asking about the PW2 -
as in:

^^ see the _kp in the url?
But check your wallet, you might have actually purchased this one:

^^ see the _kv in the url?
Which one do you actually have?
And I will give you an actual answer.
Hint (in order listed above):
KT2 - No
PW2 - Maybe not, depends on if the "Downgrade Attack" firmware change is included in your version of the firmware. Try it and you tell us.
KV - No
- - - -
Nice to see Amazon (trying) to adopt our naming conventions, if only internally.
