Well then you would hate my Sony Reader 500. My Kindle has way faster refresh than my Reader. I actually don't find the flash that bad. You get used to it very quickly. I think you may have to wait for a while though, because as of now, I think this is the limit of e-ink technology. They have been getting better about speeding it up, but I think the Kindle and the Sony Reader 505 are the fastest out there so far.
Coming over from the Sony Reader (which I do still love by the way), the Kindle is just a better product. Faster system response, works native with my Mac and I like the search feature and the amazon store features. So I'm very happy with my choice. I won't sell the Reader because I have some emotional attachment and my girlfriend reads on it every once in a while (she is a P-Book lover), but the Kindle is my main reader now.
