JSKS Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Sid,There isn't a Kindle 4 (yet). Which one have you just received - is it the new non-keyboard Kindle?There is a new version of the Kindle called the Kindle Touch available in the US:http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Touch-Wi-Fi-Ink-Display/dp/B005890G8Y/ref=sr_tr_sr_2?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1318615624&sr=1-2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 That is the Kindle 4 that Amazon.fr are selling is it not? Certainly looks like it to me:-http://kindle4.webs.com/http://www.amazon.fr/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sid Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 [quote user="JK"]Sid, There isn't a Kindle 4 (yet). [/quote]Damn! I'd better send it back then!If you Google Kindle 4 mine is the one that comes up. I say mine, but obviously mine is here looking at me now, saying "I am Kindle 4, honest!".Like this...http://kindle4.webs.com/ EDIT just noticed that you already posted this link Jay, sorry!This latest release of Kindle has the release 4 software and has already become known as Kindle 4 to differentiate it from all the other variants; "Kindle Keyboard" (the one with a keyboard, surprisingly), "Kindle Touch" (the one with the touch screen), and the forthcoming "Kindle Fire" (the one with....erm... well, whatever).Amazon just refer to this one simply as "Kindle"; it's the new base model.

JSKS Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Curiously, the only significant organisation that don't seem to refer to Kindle 4 is Amazon who simply call the new version Kindle (to distinguish from Kindle keyboard).So the newly released, slimmed-down Kindle is unofficially Kindle 4. At least it's not confusing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 The Kindle with the keyboard was the Kindle version 3 which they renamed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, I might have bought the Touch version if it had been available in France. Having a touch screen phone and an iPod, habits are difficult to lose ...Enjoy Kindling ......CBC65 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
