You're right, it's 4.0. I thought it was the model number, but it's the firmware version.

According to Wikipedia, "The fourth/fifth/seventh generation Kindles... can display AZW, AZW3, TXT, PDF, unprotected MOBI, and PRC files natively." I'm now in the process of updating to 4.1.3, so I'll soon find out whether or not this is true...
