You can do as HarryT said and purchase the $40USD upgrade to a non-SO Kindle Touch from your amazon account. Your ads will go away automatically when you sync your kindle (or leave wireless turned on when you go to screensaver mode).

There are hacks to disable special offsers, but several of them have caused bricked kindles, so do your research and use a reliable method IF you choose to do that. Do not use one that is NOT for your specific firmware version. I trust ixtab's advice if you choose to go that route.

Personally, I like my ads and the ad screensavers. They are not intrusive and they tend to be artistic and tasteful, and they bring a little variety as well.
