PW1 is the name used here on MobileRead for the Paperwhite 5th generation since that was the first model of Paperwhite.

There is no such thing as a Paperwhite 1st generation. Calling it that is a mistake on Amazon's part.

Perhaps this can be used as a the basis for a complaint when those devices are cut off. "What do you mean my Paperwhite 5th gen is no longer supported? That wasn't in your list of obsolete devices!"
