Are you sure about that? The LED light source doesn't flicker like a florescent source would, but the data displaced on the LCDs pixels on the screen has a refresh rate, yes? (See 60Hz, 120Hz, 240Hz HDTVs, etc)
Since those LCD pixels control how much of the LED light gets to your eye, there can certainly be flicker. For moving video it can be very important. Not sure it matters for mostly static display like a page of text, but I'm not certain the effect is nil.
