advertising

I have an Android App and I would like to start putting non-intrusive advert into the app. However, I have the benefit of knowing exactly what products I would like to put in these adverts (which will basically be amazon "similar products" type things and a few other suppliers). Is there any ad-engine out there that will allow me to do this? The ones I see already just put what they think are suitable.

I have scoured and I can't find an example of this... Any ideas? Should I just bite the bullet and write my own classes to do this ?
