Thanks.

Looks like you can turn if off, and they'll simply charge you the price difference.

I have a kindle touch with ads, and honestly I sort of prefer them over the ad-less version. Those same 10 screensavers on the ad-less one get old fast, and I even buy an advertised product on rare occasions.

They really need to hook it up to my AMZN recommendations to show me targeted discounts though =P.
