One page, big long full to black and back to white flash. I have only 14 books on the device, so I didn't think that indexing would be causing it. I compared it to the Voyage, same book etc and totally different. Of course there is the refresh but so subtle you barely notice it, not so the new lovely Oasis! Any thought?

PS I just read some reviews about the page refresh and they say it is fast and smooth. Well, mine sure isn't. My 1200 books are still in the cloud, not on the device, but could it still be slowing it down? Ugh. I don't want to go through the return process!
I see the same thing you do when I'm in settings, and while opening and closing a book, but not while actually reading the book.
