+
+## 3. Device Identifiers
+
+### 3.1. Device Identifier
+The Device module **MUST** expose a read-only, clear-text unique identifier of the device via the `Device.id` method.
+
+This API will likely only be permitted to fisrt-party apps and **MUST** only be surfaced in the Manage SDK.
+
+The value of this **MUST** be unique within a distributor.
+
+This API requires `use` access to the `xrn:firebolt:capability:device:identification` capability.
+
+**NOTE**: we probably need a registry of Firebolt distributors to avoid collisions.
+
+### 3.2. Anonymized Device Identifier
+The Device module **MUST** expose a read-only, anonymized device identifier that is consistent across launches of the same app via the `Device.uid` method.
+
+The value of this **MUST** be unique within a distributor and per app.
+
+The anonymized device identifier **MUST NOT** be trackable across apps.
+
+The anonymized device identifiers **MUST** be resettable for all apps at once via the `Device.resetIdentifiers()` method.
+
+The anonymized device identifier **MUST** be an MD5 hash of:
+
+- `Device.distributor()`
+- `Device.id()`
+- curent app id
+- the timestamp of when `Device.resetIdentifiers()` was last called, or the Epoch
+
+**TODO**: What is the use case? if it's just Advertising, then we should cut this.
+**NOTE**: Potentially connected to user opts out of personalized recommendations
+
+### 3.3. Device Name
+The Device module **MUST** expose a read/write/notification property of the user preferred name of the device via the `Device.name` method.
+
+## 4. Versions
+
+### 4.1. Platform Version
+The Device module **MUST** expose the highest supported Firebolt API version as a `SemanticVersion` object via the `Device.version()` method.
+
+A `SemanticVersion` is structured as follows:
+
+```typescript
+type SemanticVersion = {
+    major: number;
+    minor: number;
+    patch: number;
+    readable: string;
+}
+```
+
+**NOTE**: The SDK version is moved to a statically generated `SDK.version` method and does not involve an RPC call:
+
+```typescript
+import { SDK } from '@firebolt-js/sdk'
+
+console.log(SDK.version())
+```
+
+### 4.2. Firmware Version
+The Device module **MUST** expose the current firmware version as a `string` via the `Device.firmware()` method.
+
+### 4.3. Debugging Info
+The Device module **MUST** expose a free-form debugging `string` via the `Device.debugInfo()` method.
+
+## 5. Device Classification
+
+### 5.1. Type
+The Device module **MUST** expose the read-only type of device, e.g. IPSTB, via the `Device.type` method.
+
+The `type` method **MUST** return one of:
+
+- `STB`
+- `TV`
+
+### 5.2. Class
+Some sort of `string` hardware vendor profiling of the device, e.g. QUALM vs IP... need more examples
+
+- `QUALM``
+- `IP`
+
+### 5.3. Make
+The Device module **MUST** expose the read-only manufacturer of the device, e.g. "Raspberry Pi, ltd", via the `Device.make` method.
+
+**NOTE**: Definitely NOT an enum, but, do we want this value to be consistent across distributors? Do we need a registry?
+
+### 5.4. Model
+The Device module **MUST** expose the model number of the device, e.g. "Raspberry Pi 400", via the `Device.model` method.
+
+The Device model **SHOULD NOT** include the make.
+
+### 5.5. Serial Number
+The Device module **MUST** expose the read-only serial number of the device via the `Device.serialNumber` method.
+
+This API will likely only be permitted to fisrt-party apps and **MUST** only be surfaced in the Manage SDK.
+
+The value of this **MUST** be unique within a make and model, even across distributors.
+
+## 6. Device Proposition
+
+### 6.1. Distributor
+The Device module **MUST** expose the read-only distributor of the device, e.g. "RDK Management" via the `Device.distributor` method.
+
+**NOTE**: we probably need a registry of Firebolt distributors to avoid collisions.
+**TODO**: Confirm RDK-M distributor name.
+
+### 6.2. Partner
+The Device module **MUST** expose the read-only distribution partner of the device, e.g. "RDK Demos".
+
+The distribution partner is a way to have one or more sub-divisions within a distributor.
+
+### 6.3. Propositions
+The Device module **MUST** expose a list of product propositions that are currently enabled or that the device is currently entitled to surface.
+
+**TODO**: need examples.
+
+## 7. Cuts
+
+- Device.sku
+- Device.platform
+
+## 8. Refactored into to other modules
+**NOTE**: this section will go away once reviewed.
+
+### 8.1. MediaInfo
+
+- Device.audio
+- Device.hdr
+- Device.screenResolution
+- Device.videoResolution
+  
+### 8.2. HDMI
+
+- Device.hdcp
+
+### 8.3. Network
+
+- Device.network
+
+### 8.4. Analog Output
+
+- TBD...
+
+### 8.5. Manage SDK (TBD)
+
+- Device.provision
