You can't see it, that's the whole premise of an LCD/CRT screen. eInk doesn't do this, but doesn't mean anything. I am a bit surprised though by the OP's issue. Perhaps a larger font size should be used. I don't see turning the page on eInk and different than a pbook... isn't there a "flash" when you turn an pbook.

Perhaps trying the Kindle 2 or waiting for the newer Jinke versions with the faster Epson controllers would be a good idea.

The image on the screen is updated 60 times per second. Most people don't see it... but it could affect people that are prone to seizures.
