They did this when they released the first Paperwhite, reduced the price of the Touch and stuck with it for around for a year or two.
I don't see Amazon selling two Paperwhites at the same time, especially since they don't emphasize the numbering.

If anything I suspect they will release a new Paperwhite and bump up the specs on the basic, possibly with a light.
