I only notice the flash occasionally although it is there for every page.
Small price to pay for the convenience of the ebook reader.

I lost my Sony on the bus (was found and returned four days later by wonderful driver) and was reading pbooks for a day. I was quite amazed at how cumbersome the act of pbook reading, which I have been practicing for more than 50 years, seemed.

Small page flash with one handed reading vs. setting down coffee, turning page, picking up coffee and page turns back
-or-
setting down sandwich, making sure fingers are clean, turning page
-or-
Changing position in bed to turn page and significant other wakes up and says what are you still reading for at this time of night, gives big groan and stalks off to sleep on the couch then stalks back to steal all the blankets the minute you fall asleep.

More page flash on a channel change on TV but that doesn't seem to bother people too much, even the technophobes.
