Am I right in thinking that this is an e-ink thing, or is it unique to the Kindle? I'm going on holiday with several people tonight, and at least one of them is thinking about buying an e-book reader. If it bothers them, I'd like to know whether it only happens with the Kindle.

Maybe she's after an iPad and is using this as an excuse?
Kidding aside, the flash goes away (you stop noticing it) after reading 5 pages.
