On my Kindle, I don't notice any page flash unless I deliberately want to catch it. But with my older iRiver Story, the flash is noticeable indeed.
Right now, Kindle is my preferred reading device. Its font, the ease of use, the clarity of the words on the screen, and the comfortable way it sits on the palm, and the ease of turning the pages all add up to it being a very good ebook reader. Well, my jetbook is already gathering dust since I bought the Kindle, and that's saying something.
