Thank you everyone for these very helpful answers.

Rcentros: Do you know what year version 5.6.5 is from? If it is old enough, I will write to the seller to confirm that this is indeed the version of the Kindle he/she is listing.

Sirtel: I actually did order a used Kindle 4th generation with buttons and no touch screen a few weeks ago, and it turned out that is was equipped with wi-fi after all, and had received a recent update that rendered it unusable to me. I was very surprised about this, since it is quite an old Kindle.

Thanks again!
