Used to be fun on my Kobo Aura watching the edges of characters writhing as the refresh occurred.
I was talking about ghosting, which only happens inbetween full complete refreshes. Say, everytime you turn a page and it doesn't flash. Normal is what happens most of the time - most of the time it doesn't flash. If you want to define normal as the occasional complete and full refresh, then we are going to have communication difficulties.
