Yes, exactly; the same Calibre driver is used for devices from the Kindle 2 onwards. I would suggest going into the Kindle driver in Calibre (Preferences / Advanced / Plug-ins / Device Interface Plug-ins / Kindle 2/3/4...), select "Customize Plug-in", and move the "AZW3" format to the top of the list. That will then make it the default format that Calibre will send to the device. Also, go to "Preferences / Behaviour", and set AZW3 as the default output conversion format.
