I would think it would make sense to update the ads whenever the user synced their Kindle. You download books, you get new ads. The way I see it, the Home screen has to change when you get new books anyway, and if they are pushing screensavers with this new software they have, there's probably not a need to update the firmware each time.

Does that make sense?
