The term "Basic" has disappeared.
The term "all new Kindle" has returned (last seen @ PW2 IIRC).

3G (or 4G) is not available (like the KT2, KT3).
From the pictures, it looks to me that it uses the IR scanner rather than the capacitive touchscreen (like KT2, KT3).
It has Bluetooth (like the KT2, KT3).
The screen is 167ppi (like the KT2, KT3, IIRC).

Which all makes me think this is the new "Basic Touch" ...
That is, the KT4

I don't see any model serial numbers listed for it (yet):
https://wiki.mobileread.com/wiki/Kindle_Serial_Numbers

So if anyone gets one, please post the first six characters of the serial number.
We need that information to revise KindleTool so we can build packages for the new KT4.
