This is old news there was a couple of threads here and here a couple weeks back. The K4S is last years model. They are no longer making them just trying to get rid of stock. If you buy one pick the Black it's the better version of the two.

I'm sure people will see this one now that's the Paperwhite Frenzy is over with and maybe purchase a good little eReader.

One way you can tell if the K4S is newer is the power button. The Power buttons on the Black and PW is receded in and the 2011 Silver isn't. This is how I got the truth from a Rept about them being old stock.

That explains why it's different in the new K4S replacement unit that I got last month! I forgot to compare the screens before returning the defective one, so I was wondering if it was a newer unit...
Thanks

I don't know ask Auto Correct. I meant customer service representative but Rep. for short. Somehow it took the period for a T?!?

Rept. = known abbreviation for report. "Rep" could be the abbreviation for representative, repeat (music, knitting, crochet), or repertoire/repertory company but apparently isn't in your spell-check dictionary, perhaps due to the ambiguity issue.
