From comments I've seen from the HanLin folks (same actual screen on theirs), they basically have two type of screen refresh available: Full and Half (for lack of better terms).

Apparently the Half is faster, uses lest power and doesn't flash to black, but it has some ghosting.

The Full is the black flasher, its slower, and does use more power, but has no ghosting issues.

I think flashing to white would be less obtrusive too. I'm guessing that since they all do the black, that there must be some reason for it rather than white. I'm hoping that the reason isn't that it just never occured to anyone to try the other way.

@yvanleterrible:
I think we've got a couple of threads along those lines, actually.
Now I know I saw them around here somewhere ....
