Amazon's FAQ on the new devices also seems to indicate you won't be able to opt out on the PW S/O either (although you can of course buy the one without S/O's).
The omission of any explanation by Amazon alone convinced me that the SO's on the new Fires were not optional. It has been very quiet on their end with only the disclosure in the product description. I can understand bundling the devices with the ads -- what I do not understand is their disallowing removal for a fee at a later date.
