I bought my $114 Kindle with Special Offers at Best Buy while on a trip to the US recently. This is my first Kindle; I didn't know anybody with one previously so my first proper exposure to it was when I opened the box.
I won't write much about the actual Kindle itself as I'm sure it's all been said before. What I will say is that, like so many others, I have found it to be a wonderful printed media e-device which has rekindled (excuse the pun) my passion for reading. My wife also, who is somewhat technophobic, is finding it's incredibly intuitive interface a joy to use.

This "Special Offers" edition of Kindle presents it's owners with specially selected sponsor advertisements for brands such as Buick, Olay, VISA, Audible.com and Amazon.com itself. This sample represents the current offers and will undoubtedly expand and diversify over time as more advertisers come on board. These offers (exclusive to Kindle with Special Offers owners) so far range from simple information communiques to considerable discounts/vouchers for use at Amazon, Audible and presumably others in future.
So, are user exclusive offers enough for pop-up-phobic customers to even consider purchasing this overtly commercialised offering from Kindle with a potentially annoying/distracting ad display feature? Amazon obviously thought not and so, as a further sweetener, have used some of the advertiser generated revenue to subsidise the cost to the not insignificant tune of $25.

Now, a $25 saving definitely makes this option at least worth a second look and so now you're thinking "OK - but seriously, $25 is just not worth it if my reading is going to be continually interrupted by annoying pop-ups.... Is that the trade-off for saving $25 bucks?? Coz if so, I ain't buying...."
Well, somewhat to my surprise, no actually, it's not...
The ad displays are only visible in two places: the traditional sleep-mode book cover screensaver of previous Kindle models has been replaced with a full page, magazine style advertisement which periodically cycles through the available offers. The Home screen also displays the ad, this time though only in a rather small and unobtrusive banner format at the foot of the Home page. This banner acts as a link which can be clicked to receive further info via email.
That's it!

There are NO POP-UPS WHATSOEVER when you're reading...
NONE!!!

I definitely don't find the ads annoying or intrusive to my reading because simply put, they're neither. I personally find it kind of interesting to see what ads come up and think it makes the sleep-mode more engaging than it would be otherwise.
Specs wise, this version of Kindle is EXACTLY the same as the other 3rd Generation Kindles without the offers so you're not losing or gaining anything in that department.

Just a point of interest for prospective buyers outside of the US - you won't be able to purchase the $114 Special Offers version online. Amazon forces the buyer to choose the non-offers option for international shipping addresses as they say the offers are only available for US customers (however this hasn't been my experience as I have availed of offers from Audible and Amazon without any obvious issues). There are also some copyright restrictions that (very annoyingly) apply to international customers regarding which titles they can and can't buy but this is the case regardless of which Kindle version you own.
Basically though, if you're visiting the US and wondering if this version is for you, don't worry! Pop into Best Buy or Target and grab yourself a bargain - it'll work just fine when you get it home :)
So, in a nutshell; If you are in the market to buy a Kindle and are agonising over which option to choose, let me ease your pain: save your hard-earned $25 bucks (spend it on some books or put it towards a cover) and go for the "Special Offers" model - I promise you won't be sorry!
