[QUOTE=desertgrandma;1199256]If you have a BN near you, you undoubtedly have a Target, or Best Buy as well.......they are now carrying Kindles, so you can see for yourself.

Seriously you must have a different Kindle then everyone else because all e-ink flashes when changing pages, or maybe your post was intentionally misleading.

Here is a YouTube of the kindle3 page turns, very fast but they do flash.

The flash is inherent to e-ink screens. The Nook is getting an update this month that will increase page turn speed on the Nook. I have no idea if it will match the Kindle 3 which is nice and speedy but I am afraid the flash is part of the deal with e-ink, at least in current devices including the Kindle 3.
