Also, would someone point out a good case for the prs -650. I read the screen is really sensitive and a case is must.
Thanks.
As stated, they all they do that. On the kindle when navigating menu's or areas that don't flash you can quickly see why they do the flash. The eink screens have a rather noticeable burn in effect akin to an etch a sketch that hasn't been fully shaken. Trust me, you want a flash between page turns or it would look like c*%p.

If the flash bothers you, make sure you get a reader with faster page turns!
