As long as the ads is as they show them now - only on the screensaver (which I see for a second or two while it wakes up) and the home page (which I rarely see) I could live with it. Especially for ads like the ones they tout on the site (a half-price gift certificate, a $1 mp3 download, $68 in savings on audible books) - i.e. savings on top of savings for things I'd be buying anyway. Heck, if you took advantage of just those 3 you could be getting $88 in savings right there - add in that clothing one that saves $20 and you've almost paid for the $114 K3. Over time, those savings could pay for the entire K3. I don't want ads to be popping up in the middle of my books, but as a screensaver or at the bottom of the home page, wouldn't bother me. If I were in the market for a K3 I'd jump on it.
