I use a third party client (because the official one does not, for example, support multiple accounts) and I never saw ads.
Note this is not the client filtering them out (they'd be banned in an instant) it's just that the API only returns what's actually in my timeline.
Now that I think of it, it's the same with tweetdeck.. so, if you're a power user (the kind who'd be more likely to pay for the service) you already don't see them.

Huh? On Android I have three accounts and at least that works fine (given various exceptions, but generally it's OK). Not sure about iPhone client.

TweetDeck is a horrible mess for multiple accounts, from a UX perspective...
