Since apparent whiteness is context dependent, isn't it possible that the white ghosting is where a black area on the previous page has been erased and the darker background is white on both pages, so it was not erased while the old dark areas were erased and the new black areas written?

But after a full erase, since the whitest possible shade is still a bit dark and there are no slightly darker "white" areas for comparison, it looks the same dingy shade that the unerased light area looked when there was no full erase.

If not, then I am annoyed as well. I have noticed those white lines after a pop up menu goes away on the pocketbook 360.
