I have a SOny 300 (and a 505, ok, and a 500 too!) and it has a completely comfortable reading experience. I would say there is a tiny bit more hesitation when pressing the pageturn button on the 300 than the 505. But the flashing part is fine--the new page is ready when your eyes get back up to the top of the screen. I simply found a rhythm where I press the pageturn when I start the last line of text, and the screen flashes right when I finish the line. It's completely unconscious now. My opinion is, don't worry about the "speed" of page turning. It doesn't slow me down at all, and I'm a fairly fast reader. And the 300 is a great portable e-ink device--feels solid, fits in my front pants/jeans pocket.
