On the kobo, which does do this, the page turning is very slow, but there is zero ghosting.

True, there is always a slight amount of ghosting and it is usually barely noticeable. However, in these particular incidents described in this thread the term "ghosting" is probably better stated as "artifacts from multiple pages." Technically it is ghosting, but it is so bad that it looks like you have combined two pages together where the top page is nearly transparent so that much of the bottom page is visible. It is uber bad, but apparently seldom occurs.
@trekchick, I had to use Sony CS within the past month and they were not only unhelpful but downright rude when they discovered I bought my 950 at Best Buy rather than directly from Sony. Fortunately I solved my own problem. I'm glad they were able to help you, but so far I haven't been so lucky.
