I quite enjoy the author screensavers, but there's only so many and you cant add any =[
first the majority of comments from folks who have purchased the 'special offers' kindle are that the ads are mostly not bad or irritating and the banner at the bottom of the home page is also not bad or irritating.

so far there's been no jailbreak made available that will work on the firmware version used on the 'special offers' kindle. jailbreaking is needed before you can install any available screensaver hacks.

duokon, which is an alternate os and ui, does not require jailbreaking and eliminates the 'special offer' ads as well as the other things it provides.

good luck
