Transflective screens (like the Jetbook has - I think that's what the screen is called) don't have the flash, as Poppaea has mentioned. IMO, the e-ink screen seems easier to read from (they seem to me to have better contrast and a wider viewing range, from what I've seen in stores), but there are a lot of fans of transflective screens here, so if you really hate the black flash, you could try on of the devices by ectaco. I don't even notice the flash on my Sony reader, though, I think that in video's it seems a lot more noticeable than it is in real life.
