My point is that Amazon never promised an offer every four days or the 'quality' (dependent on the owner's perception, methinks) of the offers. The four days was determined by the sleuths here and at other forums.

This is how Amazon currently describes Special Offers:

Special Offers & Sponsored Screensavers
You'll receive special offers and sponsored screensavers directly on your Kindle, including AmazonLocal deals in select cities. Examples of past special offers include:

$30 for one month of unlimited yoga classes in your city ($119 value)
Save up to $500 on select HDTVs
$1 for a Kindle book, choose from thousands
$15 for $30 worth of groceries at your local store

Your offers display on your Kindle's screensaver and on the bottom of the home screen—they don't interrupt reading.

Kindle e-reader: example sponsored screensavers


Has that changed at all from the initial wording?

And in skimming the start of the thread I have to agree with the following...

If you have a Kindle sans Special Offers and you turn the 'feature' on and off as you please? Or do you only get to turn SO on once?
