Nook and Kindle turning the page question..
I want to get for my birthday one..not decided on which yet.
So in B &N the other day..played with Nook and when you click to turn the page..the words on the page kinda all blur together real quick and the next page loads.... Anyone know what I'm saying?
Well after like 3 pages..it was hurting my eyes so bad I was developing a headache from this.
I asked the girl if this was normal and she said yeah all readers do this.
I don't remember the kindle doing this when I tested it in Target but it has been a while..maybe I didn't notice.
Do all readers do this and is it just me that it bothers?

Re: Nook and Kindle turning the page question..
I never noticed that on mine, I'll have to pay attention the next time I'm reading on it.
I usually turn pages with a finger swipe on the touchscreen rather than the keys, maybe that's the difference?

Mine does this. I always thought it was strange. Is it not normal? I didn't realize not all nooks did that

I just pulled mine out and tried it and it does but it's so quick I guess I never really paid attention to it.
Sorry it makes you dizzy Donna. If you can get to a Borders in the next 4 days to try out the Kobo it's on sale for $100 after a $40 coupon they emailed me. If you FM me your addy I can forward it to you.

Same here...it might be making you dizzy since its more of a computer screen and not an ink deal like the Kindle is. Reading on a Kindle is just like reading a book, doesn't hurt your eyes any more than reading a regular book would.

Re: Nook and Kindle turning the page question..
I have a Kindle, and yes, it does happen, but quickly enough that it's never bothered me. (I've used about 10 different Kindles, and they all do this. I'm surprised that it's not happening to others.)

Re: Nook and Kindle turning the page question..
I know exactly what you're talking about and I have seen it on the regular Nook. It annoyed my eyes.
I have the Nook Color and this does not happen at all. When you turn the page, it's practically instantaneous. No blurring at all.

Re: Nook and Kindle turning the page question..
I have a Nook and the page sort of goes black for half a split second then the next page appears. It bothered me at first but now after using it for a month, I barely notice it. I actually like it b/c sometimes I hit the page turn button by mistake when I fumble for my train ticket - I'll see the flashing and know that I need to go back to the right page.

It does happen with the Nook. I agree, it's gotten much better since the update. It used to bother me a lot but now I don't even notice it. I have a regular nook not color.
