What makes it the "new" paperwhite??

[AnonYonimousBird]

It seems very recently that Amazon launched the Paperwhite! However, they are about to launch a "new" paperwhite.

I am so untechnical, I start to read techincal specs for things and all I see is 'bla bla bla', I simply cannot process the words!

So, my question is, does anyone know what it is that will make the "new" paperwhite "new" compared to the first model?

The most noticeable difference is that the new backlight for the display is brighter, whiter and more even. There are some other differences that will make it overall a bit faster and easier to use but it's the display improvement that's the biggest change.

Thanks Howard. I think I am going to treat myself.

Do you know if all my collections will just load up, or will I need to re-sort?
