I agree, a mere $25 price drop seems low for perpetual ads. If they'd made it, I dunno, a $99 deal, then it would have seemed at least a little more reasonable.
Maybe I'm sensitive, but there's a lot of ads that I do not want to see every time my reader goes to sleep. TMI/Trigger - ROT13 to read:

I'm sure people will say it's a special case, but how are you going to feel when you take your Kindle on a business trip, and it goes to sleep and brings up a bodice ripper ad? Or - god help us - a
manga?
(That was a reference to the manga thread elsewhere. I like manga just fine. Really!)
