SunLight · 01-02-2011, 01:05 PM

I do not believe I had this on my previous Kindle, but when I got my replacement Kindle recently, I noticed that more often than naught, when I changed pages, I could see a very light shadow of the text from the previous page and if it was an image, it was even more noticeable. This can be fixed by clicking the Menu button twice - thus refreshing the page, but why is this occurring, shouldn't changing the page totally swipe the screen of any fragments of the previous page?

It looks like white text on the gray/white screen of my Kindle 3 - Graphite.

Is this normal or should I ask for another replacement?

Thanks

Here is a picture of what happens when I go from a page full of text to a blank page
