mergen3107's request matches the relatively new knowledge that only those locations
matter. S/N decoding was empirically derived. In the early days it was thought that the
first 4 charcters defined the model and that worked OK. As the number of kindle models increased, that was increased to first 6. Looks like PW2 is from the era when first 4
(3 and 4 really) were enough. So looks like mergen3107 was off by 1.

So you indeed have a PW2.
