Reader Quality

I have 2 readers, one purchased at Microcenter and one at the Sony store, the quality of the screen between the 2 is completely different.

The first unit has a great screen and has barely any ghosting.

The second unit has a very poor screen with horrible ghosting, if you start a book and turn off the unit 80% of the text is still visible, especially around the edges, its even worse if you have the unit at the menu screen and then go into a bok, you can still see all the menu options underneath the text, it takes 3-6 page turns to get rid of the menu, but then you have the previous pages underneath the current one.

I had the Sony store replace their unit with a new one and it looks the same as the first, I am still trying to figure out the difference between the Microcenter unit and the Sony store units.

I did notice someting, the MC unit seems to flash twice upon a page turn or a menu refresh and the Sony store unit only flashes once to refresh the screen, does anyone elses unit do this?
