The ECTACO jetBook / jetBook Lite and Aluratek Libre Pro readers use LCD screens and do not display the flash on page turns. These LCDs, unlike regular computer and phone screens, are *not* backlit and are very easy on the eyes. If you get a chance to see one of these readers "in real life" to compare with the Kindle and other e-ink readers you may find you like it better, or not. A matter of personal preference. Me, I like all gadgets and accept their pros and cons - they are what they are.
