Well, this is going to be a quick post, because I'm going out to dinner, but here's one way to do it.
Every time you open your KESO, you get a prompt window with two options:
View Special Offers or Continue Reading.
You click on the first and its a link to your Special Offers Home Page at Amazon. On that page are all the Special Offers from the advertisers. Who are the advertisers?
Quote:
What types of ads will users see while reading on an ad-supported Kindle? Ads for cars from Buick, ads for Olay products from Proctor & Gamble, and ads for Visa, among others. These companies are sponsoring the first series of screensavers designed for Kindle's electronic ink display.
Kindle with Special Offers 3G will also offer Amazon deals like $6 for six Audible Books (normally $68), $1 for an album in the Amazon MP3 Store, $10 for $30 worth of products in the Amazon Denim Shop or Amazon Swim Shop, a free $100 Amazon gift card when you get an Amazon Rewards Visa card, and 50 percent off a Roku streaming player.

In other words, the Special Offers will be a lot of deals offered by Amazon, plus a whole bunch of companies invited by Amazon to participate. I foresee a LOT more than five advertisers wanting to get in, since its an extension of an already very successful program.
I don't foresee a problem with ad-stripping programs, since the people who opt for these KESOs will WANT to see these special offers. Looking at Tube Monkey's posts , its clear he is delighted with his KSO and his special offers. Like it or not , KSOs are a runaway hit.
I don't see why KESOs can't work for Kindle Apps as well as Kindles either.
OK, off to dinner. That's enough for you guys to chew on for a while.
