With this I'm glad I don't have a Kindle but it'll be interesting to see how they incorporate it. People really hate ads, look what Tivo is doing to TV now that everyone can just fast forward through commercials. I can't imagine reading a novel and all of a sudden an ad pops up when I flip the page (I'm thinking incorporated similar to a comic book) it would break the whole flow of the book. You have to have an ad concept that draws attention or no one will pay for the space, the other way would be as someone else suggested that there is an ad that pops up before you can read your book, at that point I think people would just put their readers down. Amazon's got to figure out a way to get paid with these eBooks so I'm waiting to see what they come up with.
