Indeed. I currently have the special offers turned on on my pre-KSO K3.

I can't say I'm crazy about the loss of a couple lines on the home screen, but the screen savers don't bother me at all.

I may turn it off again, and I like having that option, but I just got a free mp3 album through an offer, so now I'm thinking...hmmm...what will they give me next....

And I agree that disabling the ads on an SO discounted unit is pretty scummy. But it's nice that people brag about it. It's rare to get such an honest insight to the content of people's character.
