Thank you for the quick reply. It is indeed more noticable on a blanc piece of the paper. I than can see the lines from the previous page, but because I am not used to It because of the wat my Sony worked I thought because the paperwhite has this option it would not have this. After a page turn of 10 it becomes more and more visable and to be honest it bothers me. I was hoping it was a defect so that when I get a new one it would be over, but after reading your comments I am a little bit disappointed with the screen.

I know I can turn page refreshing on, but with the light on the black screen gives a flash that bothers me while reading. With light off it is no problem.

So I now have to think about what to do. Will I accept this and turn page refreshing on to avoid this and have the flash when the light is on or am I going to look for another brand....
