Bug Description

I just received the new Amazon Kindle Paperwhite 6.8" and plugged it into my Windows 10 desktop.
My other, older Kindle Paperwhite works fine with Calibre, but the new one does not show as a device in Calibre.

Windows 10, rev 1809
Calibre 5.30

New Kindle 6.8"

I have the same exact issue and came here to see if it has been reported. Received the new Kindle that was just released and Calibre doesn't see it when it is mounted.
